I had a very unpleasant time this morning compiling mplayer, with LIVE555 support, for Mac OS X Intel (Leopard, 10.5.4).
LIVE555 compiled fine, with
./genmakefiles macosx
and I moved it into /opt/local/lib/live to “co”"exist” with some macports libraries.
But mplayer refused to play nicely, until I built it with
./configure --disable-gui --disable-mencoder --disable-xinerama --disable-xv --disable-x11 --enable-largefiles --enable-macosx-finder-support --enable-menu --with-freetype-config=/usr/X11R6/bin/freetype-config --with-extraincdir=/opt/local/lib/live/ --with-extralibdir=/opt/local/lib
Yeah…right…I totally should have known that off the top of my head. At least now the binary is built, so I could Bonjour it to a coworker for his MacBook and he could start using it straight away.

My iPhone (Classic) was failing to get DHCP via one of the WiFi networks in the office. Some convoluted Googling later, I found that perhaps the clash is due to the Billion DHCP server implementation not liking the AirPort Extreme IPv6 Tunneling option being enabled.
Change the IPv6 configuration in your AirPort Extreme to:

And the basestation reboots by itself, which left me with working DHCP.
Yes, I have the WiFi basestation(s) as bridges onto the DHCP-serving router.

Under one bridge, and towards another. A single view from the eye of Ana.
This part of Sydney, near the first settlement in The Rocks, is a visual feast in Winter with the textures of sandstone, steel and tile.

An absolute classic car, with hand-drawn lines that evoke a lost era of European motoring.
