I noticed on the d/l URL that this is a cvs build ( MPlayer-dev-CVS-050618.dmg ) which explains why it doesn't work.....at all. Running 10.3.9 it either takes almost a full minute to attempt to load a movie and then it either crashes or the playbak is too choppy. I'd say stay away unless you're a developer with the MPlayer OSX project. This is definitley not a public release & I would venture to say that this wasn't posted by a main MPlayer OSX project developer either .

MP3's so far play OK, mocies clips it takes anywhere from 30 seconds to a minute of intense hdd activity for it to load the movie and then the movies start out choppy, 1 even crashed but was playable by MPlayer OS X 2.0b9 and quicktime.what is the difference between MPlayer OS X 2 and this version?

Hi, I made a few change to the ui (playlist is not finished yet). Most of the MPlayer OSX code is the same but has been forked inside the mplayer project since MPlayer OSX developer do not have time to work on the frontend anymore (I will take over). Many change have been made to mplayer, I did the corevideo driver now default in the cvs and work is in progress to fix the audio driver. most problem are related to the audio driver, you can test it by disabling the audio in the preference panel. All the code is in beta and only have been tested on an ibook g4 running 10.4.1, that why i need some feedback. thank youMonday, June 20 2005 @ 09:57 AM PDT
