I have a gentoo chroot sitting on my PC. Just so I don’t forget everything 
while Arch is my daily driver. :D

Anyways, I did an emerge sync and was able to emerge the current stable 
version 1.5_p20241125 of mplayer just fine (it wasn’t installed before). 
This is an AMD-only system, just like yours I think. Since your problematic 
header files come from ffmpeg, here are my active ffmpeg use flags:

X alsa bluray bzip2 cpudetection dav1d doc encode frei0r gnutls gpl iconv 
jpegxl lcms libass libdrm lzma modplug mp3 network opengl opus pic postproc 
pulseaudio rav1e sdl srt ssh svg theora threads truetype twolame vorbis 
vulkan webp x264 x265 xvid zlib

The version is 6.1.2, installed back in December. I have not touched this 
installation since then.
