I believe (?) that you can start softsqueeze via the manual "java"
command (in a command prompt) and specify the skin that way. Not sure
if that helps you. Check out the sourceforge page for the specifics on
the CLI command.

mplayer looks for codecs under lots of names and directories.
For AlienBBC under windows put the codec (cook3260.dll) in a manually

The codec can be found oin the mplayerhq site as part of the essential
