Sorry, my first try to post failed...
I'm trying to use mencoder with "-oac mp3lame" so I can make
audio-visual recordings with mencoder. I can do it in Ubuntu, but not
in Slackware. Slackware gives me the message that MPlayer was compiled
without libmp3lame support.
So I got the SlackBuild from disk 5 of my 13.37 download. I found the
place where you change the value of USE_PATENTS, did what I needed to
do, then ran MPlayer.SlackBuild as root.
It took a long time, but ended with an error.
./MPlayer.SlackBuild FAILED at line 298!
Line 298 says this:
cd $PKG/usr/share/mplayer/skins
And I found this in install-MPlayer.log:
vvv
make -C ffmpeg/libswscale
make: *** ffmpeg/libswscale: No such file or directory. Stop.
make: *** [ffmpeg/libswscale/libswscale.a] Error 2
^^^
I found a webpage that seems to describe my problem or something
similar. It is from 2009. Alien Bob provides a little insight
suggesting to the OP that he try again with VERSION set to a more
recent version. I would try that, but I don't know what version to
use.
Perhaps version 20110624. I saw that Alien Bob had a SlackBuild for
MPlayer with that version. By the way, I tried building and installing
his 20110624 MPlayer. It solved the libmp3lame problem. In other
words my use of mencoder with "-oac mp3lame" no longer complained of
MPlyaer having been compiled without libmp3lame. But, sadly, I then
had other problems. Uses of mencoder that worked in Ubuntu and
successfully recorded audio and video using mencoder produced errors
when run in Slackware 13.37.
So I'm running MPlayer.SlackBuild, same as before but with
VERSION=20110624.
I get this:
No FFmpeg checkout, press enter to download one with git or CTRL+C
to abort
So I pressed enter. Now it says:
Cloning into ffmpeg...
This is exciting, but I don't know what I'm doing. Seems to be taking
a long time.
OK. It failed:
./MPlayer.SlackBuild FAILED at line 292!
That was a shot in the dark, anyway. Can someone help?

http://repository.slacky.eu/slackware-13.37/multimedia/MPlayer/
and it has libmp3lame support.
It may have some dependencies (I don't remember), so it is convenient
to install it with slapt-get.

Actually, I used Alien Bob's SlackBuild after all. The first time I
used it I thought there was a problem with the MPlayer that it made.
Now I'm thinking that it was just different, not wrong. Normal for new
releases to differ from before.
