[Linux] Journal.

Here’s a nice guide on configuring USE flag for mplayer, I enabled the following in global:

USE="xinerama mmx sse sse2 cdr dvd dvdread divx4linux vcd xvid win32codecs flac"

and mplayer specific:

media-libs/win32codecs real quicktime
media-video/mplayer mmx2 dts -real

vlc advices to always use the unstable version, and to compile with the following USE flags:

media-video/vlc ffmpeg wxwindows aac dts a52 theora oggvorbis matroska freetype bidi xv svga gnutls stream vlm httpd cdda cdio live

Then rebuild with new flags:

$ emerge --newuser -uDav mplayer vlc
