A CMake-based MinGW-w64 cross-compilation toolchain primarily used to build Windows binaries of the mpv media player. It automates building mpv and its dependencies from source on Linux, WSL, Cygwin, or MSYS2 hosts.

Use cases

• build mpv for windows from source
• cross-compile windows binaries on linux
• set up a mingw-w64 cross toolchain with cmake
• produce custom mpv windows builds
• build windows media player binaries with ninja and cmake

When to choose

• you need custom or patched mpv windows builds
• you want to automate building mpv and all its dependencies for windows
• you need a reproducible mingw-w64 cross-compilation environment

When to avoid

• you just want ready-made mpv windows binaries - download official builds instead
• you need to build windows apps unrelated to mpv without adaptation
• you cannot use linux, WSL, Cygwin, or MSYS2 as a build environment
