What you describe is a difference in the source code, not build differences.

Did you try the mplayer kindle binary from this site ?
Does it run as desired ?
Can you rebuild it and have it run the same as the binary ?
(tests your entire setup and direction following ability.)

Once past those steps - then try to change things (like a different source).

When you write: "following these directions . . ." and post a link to a script file -
Do you mean you are running the script file ?
Or do you mean you are reading it as a list of directions ?

Which binary from this site? This one?
MPlayer 1.0rc4-4.4.5 (C) 2000-2010 MPlayer Team

On page 7 of this thread other people also describe the higher CPU usage of this binary compared to the fbdev one. I would like to know how I can compile it like fbdev, he did not mention any source changes.

His binary:
MPlayer 1.0rc4-4.2.1 (C) 2000-2010 MPlayer Team
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/att...4&d=1318198574

Using -O2 instead of -O4 uses 40% cpu instead of 30% cpu. I just watch it in top for a minute. fbdev's uses 10%.

I use MPlayer-1.0rc4 source, same as other two until I can figure out the magic of the low cpu use.
MPlayer 1.0rc4-4.2.1 (C) 2000-2010 MPlayer Team
My binary ends up with the same CPU use as the binary in this thread. But that is 3x as high as the fbdev one.

All use the libasound on the kindle as far as I know. Mine was compiled against 1.0.13 just like the build.sh suggests. I read it as a list of instructions.
