<span class="application">MPlayer</span> previously contained source from the
3
OpenDivX project, which disallows binary redistribution.This code has been
4
removed in version 0.90-pre1 and the remaining file <tt class="filename">divx_vbr.c</tt>
5
that is derived from OpenDivX sources has been put under the GPL by its authors
6
as of version 0.90pre9. You are now welcome to create binary packages as you
9
Another impediment to binary redistribution was compiletime optimizations
10
for CPU architecture. <span class="application">MPlayer</span> now supports
11
runtime CPU detection (pass the
12
<tt class="option">--enable-runtime-cpudetection</tt> to <span><strong class="command">configure</strong></span>).
13
It is disabled by default because it implies a small speed sacrifice, but it is
14
now possible to create binaries that run on different members of the Intel
15
compatible CPU family.
