In reference to the ports system, I keep getting make errors when trying to use the new port for mplayer-1.0... I think that it uses make instead of gmake, because I got the same errors until I remembered to use gmake. I have gotten it to compile/install from a gmake build, ports still does not work for me. The error was evidently due to a miscellaneous directory having been created in the compile directory for mplayer. I found it and removed it, and then proceeded with the install from the tared download from mplayer.org. Thanks for the reply, though.
