error building omxplayer

[rand4ll]

Hello all. I am a new raspberry pi user but not a new arch user. I ran arch as primary OS on my computer for over 8 years now. I got it up a running nicely with LXDE gui and have installed midori as my browser and the calligra office suite, in fact I am posting this from it. I will be demoing this to a class next monday (December 3rd) as part of a project I am working on for my masters computer architecture course. I would like to get some high quality video to play and I have downloaded a video encoded with h.264 and am having a very hard time. I have tried both mplayer and VLC to no success, even with adding the 'turbo mode' settings to my /boot/config.txt found here (assuming this does NOT void my warranty correct?? and won't damage it before my presentation, as if it did, i would be SOL).

Anyways, after more research I have found that omxplayer is hardware accelerated for the pi but I am having errors whenever compiling it, it compiles for about 15 mins but part way through i get the following error:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
SubtitleRenderer.cpp: In member function ‘void SubtitleRenderer::initialize_window(int)’:
SubtitleRenderer.cpp:368:3: error: ‘graphics_get_display_size’ was not declared in this scope
make: *** [SubtitleRenderer.o] Error 1
')

If anyone knows why this won't work that would be great, or even if there is some place I can just get the binary to install as for some reason this is not available in the repos for arch...

Anyways, thanks for any help! This seems to be my very last task for this project other than making a quick image backup of my current working system.

I just built the omxplayer-git package from the AUR without any problems, and it works too. I had to change the memory split since I'm on the old Raspberry Pi, otherwise it would run out of memory.
