Public bug reported: MPlayer in new 20.04 LTS (2:1.3.0-8build5) fails to load GUI gives "skin errors" Using stock Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (3.36.1) in Gnome. Only thing added to system pulseaudio control gui and libdvdcss2 from source package set. Videos default player also will not run but gives no errors. MPlayer installs as a command line player, but the GUI and skins crash the program with skin errors.
