@item In order to compile FFplay, you must have the MinGW development library
-of SDL. Get it from @url{http://www.libsdl.org}.
+of @uref{http://www.libsdl.org/, SDL}.
Edit the @file{bin/sdl-config} script so that it points to the correct prefix
where SDL was installed. Verify that @file{sdl-config} can be launched from
the MSYS command line.
Your install path (@file{/usr/local/} by default) should now have the
necessary DLL and LIB files under the @file{bin} directory.
-@end enumerate
+Alternatively, build the libraries with a cross compiler, according to
+the instructions below in @ref{Cross compilation for Windows with Linux}.
To use those files with MSVC++, do the same as you would do with
the static libraries, as described above. But in Step 4,
libraries (@file{libxxx.dll.a} files), as these will give you undefined
reference errors. There should be no need for @file{libmingwex.a},
@file{libgcc.a}, and @file{wsock32.lib}, nor any other external library
-statically linked into the DLLs. The @file{bin} directory contains a bunch
-of DLL files, but the ones that are actually used to run your application
-are the ones with a major version number in their filenames

+statically linked into the DLLs.
FFmpeg headers do not declare global data for Windows DLLs through the usual
dllexport/dllimport interface. Such data will be exported properly while
Note that using import libraries created by dlltool requires
the linker optimization option to be set to
-"References: Keep Unreferenced Data (/OPT:NOREF)", otherwise
+"References: Keep Unreferenced Data (@code{/OPT:NOREF})", otherwise
the resulting binaries will fail during runtime. This isn't
required when using import libraries generated by lib.exe.
+This issue is reported upstream at
+@url{http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12633}.
+
+To create import libraries that work with the @code{/OPT:REF} option
+(which is enabled by default in Release mode), follow these steps:
+
+@enumerate
+
+@item Open @file{Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt}.
+
+Alternatively, in a normal command line prompt, call @file{vcvars32.bat}
+which sets up the environment variables for the Visual C++ tools
+(the standard location for this file is
+@file{C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\bin\vcvars32.bat}).
+
+@item Enter the @file{bin} directory where the created LIB and DLL files
+are stored.
+
+@item Generate new import libraries with @file{lib.exe}:
+
+@example
+lib /machine:i386 /def:..\lib\avcodec-53.def /out:avcodec.lib
+lib /machine:i386 /def:..\lib\avdevice-53.def /out:avdevice.lib

@subsection Cross compilation for Windows with Linux
You must use the MinGW cross compilation tools available at
(you can change the cross-prefix according to the prefix chosen for the
MinGW tools).
-Then you can easily test FFmpeg with Wine

Then run
@example
