It seems the last packager has lost interest on this package, so I've taken maintainership of it now.

I've added new patches to get it building again in this repository. I've changed the sources to use new mirrors. And I've also tweaked a few things in the PKGBUILD, because some of the dependencies have become missing and/or unneeded.

The package is now building again. Though, if new issues arise, feel free to email me at the URL linked in the PKGBUILD. You can also flag this package instead, if you want, then explain in the comments what's wrong.

NOTE: This package uses GPG keys for verification.

To avoid build failures, make sure to run the following command before you install:

$ gpg --recv-key 51E8B148A9999C34

For more information, see the Arch Wiki article on makepkg verification.

Hello @talessx. This is a common issue for AUR packages that link against libraries from the official repositories. What you need to do is to rebuild the AUR package against the new version of the library. You have to do this every time the library it depends on (in this case, libx264) is updated.

Hi, it requires libx264.so.163 that is no longer supported by pacman, last update is 3:0.164.r3081.19856cc-1 version.

" xxxxx@xxxxxx ~ $ mplayer mplayer: error while loading shared libraries: libx264.so.163: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory "

@Danieldakataca This package uses GPG verification during build. Make sure to import the keys before running makepkg.

I've added a note in the pinned comment to this regard.

Gpg keys cannot be verified, so installation fails.

Thanks @ryshglene, works well for me.

I have his sources mirrored here: https://github.com/ryshglene/mplayer-vaapi/releases/tag/36265

Try editing the PKGBUILD to use the sources there instead, and see if it builds. I haven't it tested personally, but it should work without any problems (as its the same exact files).

Edit: It doesn't work without any problems.

In particular, I got errors while building stream/stream_smb.c because of some missing headers. And also with ffmpeg's libavcodec/libx264.c, because of API changes.

I've added patches to fix this, so anyone wanting to test can clone the repo at: https://gitlab.com/arvl/aurpkg-mplayer-vaapi

As of now, it works for me, at least.

Looks like the project has gone away - URL is not reachable and sources have disappeared (404)…

Building libavcodec/libilbc components fails against current version of the library, use --disable-libilbc if you don't need it.
