mplayer-devel qtx support broken for Snow Leopard 10.6.1 + macports 1.8.1

[davidfavor (David Favor)]

Per other tickets I've tried this turning off yasm, mmx & sse support (all flags) with no effect.

Please review the ticket reporting guidelines.

Looks like Quicktime functionality is hosed pending a code rewrite
to switch from the old QuickTime API to the new one.

I've posted this to the mplayer users mailing list also

I'm unsure the correct way to dispose of this bug. I'm imagining
close as "to be fixed in upstream mplayer someday".
________

In each case where an undeclared error occurs I've tracked this down to
Apple header file segments like this one out of Sound.h which state the
errors relate to deprecated declarations:

... ... ...
/*
 *  SoundConverterGetBufferSizes()   *** DEPRECATED ***
 *  
 *  Availability:
 *    Mac OS X:         in version 10.0 and later in Carbon.framework [32-bit only] but deprecated in 10.5
 *    CarbonLib:        in CarbonLib 1.0 and later
 *    Non-Carbon CFM:   in SoundLib 3.2 and later
 */
extern OSErr 
SoundConverterGetBufferSizes(
  SoundConverter   sc,
  unsigned long    inputBytesTarget,
  unsigned long *  inputFrames,
  unsigned long *  inputBytes,
  unsigned long *  outputBytes)                               AVAILABLE_MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_0_AND_LATER_BUT_DEPRECATED_IN_MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_5;
... ... ...

It appears the code for ad_qtaudio.c and ad_qtvideo.c requires a
rewrite to use a newer API, of which there's no pointer to in the
header files. It appears the new API may reside in the MacOS directory:

   /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk/.../QuickTime.framework/.../Headers/QuickTime*.h

Indeed, this is something for upstream.
