yes, you do end up with mplayer linking libfaac. however, if we ever are going to have mplayer using external ffmpeg libs, which I do hope we can some day, this will have to be the case, or there will be unresolved symbols. and it was me who said before only mencoder should link libfaac. ok, I was wrong. I said that because adding -lfaac to LDFLAGS, as in previous versions, is not a good idea, because it links faac into all binaries (and in all link tests in the configure script). -- jake...@sdf.lonestar.org SDF Public Access UNIX System - http://sdf.lonestar.org
