This can be used to -produce both 32 bit and 64 bit executables. MinGW-w64 is available from -http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net. - -You have to run mpv's configure with these arguments: - -```bash -DEST_OS=win32 TARGET=i686-w64-mingw32 ./waf configure -``` - -While building a complete MinGW-w64 toolchain yourself is possible, people have -created scripts to help ease the process. In particular, [MXE](http://mxe.cc) -makes it very easy to bootstrap a complete MingGW-w64 environment from scratch. -See a working example below. - -Alternatively, you can try [mingw-w64-cmake](https://github.com/lachs0r/mingw-w64-cmake), -which bootstraps a MinGW-w64 environment and builds mpv and dependencies. - -**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 - -Note that MinGW environments included in Linux distributions are often broken, -outdated and useless, and usually don't use MinGW-w64. - -Additional dependencies ------------------------ - -You need a pthread wrapper. It must be interoperable with native Windows -threads. pthreads-win32 or MinGW pthreads might work. - -If you want ``--input-file=...`` to work, you need libwaio. It's available -from: git://midipix.org/waio - -Example with MXE ----------------- - -```bash -# Before starting, make sure you install MXE prerequisites. MXE will download -# and build all target dependencies, but no host dependencies. For example, -# you need a working compiler, or MXE can't build the crosscompiler. -# -# Refer to -# -# http://mxe.cc/#requirements -# -# Scroll down for disto/OS-specific instructions to install them. - -# Download MXE. Note that compiling the required packages requires about 1.4 GB -# or more! - -cd /opt -git clone https://github.com/mxe/mxe mxe -cd mxe - -# Set build options. - -# The JOBS environment variable controls threads to use when building. DO NOT -# use the regular `make -j4` option with MXE as it will slow down the build. -# Alternatively, you can set this in the make command by appending "JOBS=4" -# to the end of command: -echo "JOBS := 4" >> settings.mk - -# The MXE_TARGET environment variable builds MinGW-w64 for 32 bit targets. -# Alternatively, you can specify this in the make command by appending -# "MXE_TARGETS=i686-w64-mingw32" to the end of command: -echo "MXE_TARGETS := i686-w64-mingw32.static" >> settings.mk - -# If you want to build 64 bit version, use this: -# echo "MXE_TARGETS := x86_64-w64-mingw32.static" >> settings.mk - -# Build required packages. The following provide a minimum required to build -# mpv. - -make gcc ffmpeg libass jpeg pthreads - -# Add MXE binaries to $PATH -export PATH=/opt/mxe/usr/bin/:$PATH - -# Build mpv. The target will be used to automatically select the name of the -# build tools involved (e.g. it will use i686-w64-mingw32.static-gcc). - -cd .. -git clone https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv.git -cd mpv -DEST_OS=win32 TARGET=i686-w64-mingw32.static ./waf configure -# Or, if 64 bit version, -# DEST_OS=win32 TARGET=x86_64-w64-mingw32.static ./waf configure -./waf build -``` |
