Mplayer, xine, evas and gstreamer are all ported and quite a few Linux apps (especially scripted ones like Freevo) work out of the box on my Mac. I don't see why Freevo wouldn't work almost out of the box with X11, and I doubt it's much more work to get the display engine aquafied. Mplayer already has macosx native output. Maybe when school calms a bit I'll try it. -b ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
