vlc 0.8.0 doesn't play files... can I fix it?

[iboadi]

hey,
I installed vlc vlc 0.8.0 by compiling a source because I needed --enable-v4l . the problem is that, when I insalled, I had disabled -ffmpeg, -libmpeg2 et -mad.
Now, when trying to play files, it says that

You need ffmpeg for DIVX and MPEG-Audio playback, so you have to recompile VLC with enabled ffmpeg-support. The easiest way to do that is to compile ffmpeg without installing it and link statically to it. Keep in mind that you have to mirror certain ffmpeg-configure-option also to VLC's configure-options.
