You link to a blog posting that explains how to compile mplayer-vaapi from source. It may or may not be a good starting point for the actual packaging, which this bug is about. Unfortunately, it seems nobody has started this yet.
On a personal note, I don't think yet having another copy of mplayer in the archive is a good idea. These changes should really go to the mplayer2 codebase proper. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/517467 Title: [needs-packaging] mplayer-vaapi To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/517467/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
