<application>MPlayer</application> does not work on Mac OS versions before
10, but should compile out-of-the-box on Mac OS X 10.2 and up.
The preferred compiler is the Apple version of
GCC 3.x or later. If you have Mac OS X 10.3.9 or later and QuickTime 7
GCC 3.x or later.
You can get the basic compilation environement by installing Apple's
<ulink url="http://developer.apple.com/tools/download/">Xcode</ulink>.
If you have Mac OS X 10.3.9 or later and QuickTime 7
you can use the macosx video output driver.

Unfortunately, this basic environment won't allow you to take advantage
of all the nice features of <application>MPlayer</application>.
For instance, in order to have OSD support compiled in, you will need
to have fontconfig and freetype libraries installed in your machine.
Contrary to other Unixes such as most Linux and BSDs, OSX doesn't have just
one packaging system that comes with the system.

There's at least two to choose from:
<ulink url="http://fink.sourceforge.net/">Fink</ulink> and
<ulink url="http://darwinports.opendarwin.org/">DarwinPorts</ulink>.
Both of them provide about the same service (i.e. a lot of packages to
choose from, dependencies resolution, the ability to simply add/update/remove
packages, etc...).
Fink offers both precompiled binary packages or to build everything from
source, whereas DarwinPorts only offers to build them from source.
The author of this guide chose DarwinPorts for the simple fact that its basic
setup was more lightweight.
Later examples will be based on DarwinPorts.

<para>
For instance, to compile <application>MPlayer</application> with OSD support:
<screen>sudo port install pkgconfig</screen>
This will install <application>pkg-config</application>, which is a system for
managing library compile/link flags.
<application>MPlayer</application>'s <systemitem>configure</systemitem> script
uses it to properly detect libraries.
Then you can install <application>fontconfig</application> in a
similar way:
<screen>sudo port install fontconfig</screen>
Then you can proceed with launching <application>MPlayer</application>'s
<systemitem>configure</systemitem> script (note the
<systemitem>PKG_CONFIG_PATH</systemitem> and <systemitem>PATH</systemitem>
environment variables so that <systemitem>configure</systemitem> find the
libraries installed with DarwinPorts):
<screen>PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/local/lib/pkgconfig/ PATH=$PATH:/opt/local/bin/ ./configure</screen>
