The minimum install of mplayer on a command line only gentoo server with
no x11 installed is listed above, 22 packages! I guess mplayer needs all
that 'stuff' to run on a *non* X11 system as well. Ouch. I hate to link
with X11 libraries on a command line only server.

Just to verify I did emerge mplayer on my server, it did compile all 22
packages, and it did run just fine on the command line (of course adding
those 3 things to custom-convert.conf in my squeezecenter directory so I
can stream wma radio stations to softsqueeze).

If anyone else is wondering the same thing I was for a non X11 linux
server, I guess that's the 'smallest' mplayer you can compile (or
emerge of you're on gentoo).
