Another advantage: It abolished the horrible internationalization mechanism of mplayer1 and uses gettext now. This means I can finally post English output on mailing lists and bug trackers by executing it like 'LC_ALL=C mplayer2 foo' instead of recompiling it. It also doesn't restart playback when switching between fullscreen and window mode. One disadvantage: I often watch videos I'm recording from dvb-t. With mplayer1 I could seek behind the official end of the file (when I record 1 hour in advance, watch 15 minutes, I could seek to 1:15:00). With mplayer2, it only seeks to the official end, so if I want to seek to 1:15:00, I have to restart mplayer2. Overall, I'm quiet satisfied with mplayer2 and use it exclusively for playback. I still keep mplayer1 because mplayer2 does not provide mencoder. Regards, Florian Philipp
Does mplayer2 work with smplayer or kmplayer? Dale :-) :-)
