http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net.
You have to run mpv's configure with these arguments:
DEST_OS=win32 TARGET=i686-w64-mingw32 ./waf configure
Using mingw-w64-cmake to setup a MinGW-w64 environment is recommended (this will
also build mpv and its dependencies): https://github.com/lachs0r/mingw-w64-cmake
```bash
DEST_OS=win32 TARGET=i686-w64-mingw32 ./waf configure
```
Alternatively, use MXE: http://mxe.cc
With MXE, you have to modify the file settings.mk to target MinGW-w64 (even if
you compile to 32 bit).
While building a complete MinGW-w64 toolchain yourself is possible, people have
created scripts to help ease the process. These are the two recommended methods:
Warning: the original MinGW (http://www.mingw.org) is unsupported.
- Using [mingw-w64-cmake](lachs0r/mingw-w64-cmake) to setup a MinGW-w64
environment. We recommend you to try this first before MXE. mingw-w64-cmake
will also build mpv and its dependencies.
- Alternatively, you can use MXE: http://mxe.cc. With MXE, you have to manually
set the target to MinGW-w64 (even if you compile to 32 bit). A working example
below.
**Warning**: the original MinGW (http://www.mingw.org) is unsupported.
Note that MinGW environments included in Linux distributions are often broken,
outdated and useless, and usually don't use MinGW-w64.
