Sorry for the delayed response.

Currently building with internal ffmpeg git master doesn't work.
I will send patches to fix this ASAP on the mplayer-dev-eng ML.

Meanwhile if you want to compile with internal FFmpeg you can use
the 7.1 release branch.

Edit FFBRANCH in MPlayer's configure to `release/7.1` like:

   FFBRANCH=release/7.1

Hope it works for you!


Best regards,
