I don't post many reviews at Versiontracker anymore.. but in this case I *have* to make an exception.
This is an AWESOME port of MPlayer. Previously I could ONLY do what could be done using terminal commands; in addition, the author has cleaned up some freetype/font config bugs that kept me from seeing styled subtitles the way they were meant to be seen.
Add to that EASY font color [for SRT] and scaling, even of styled fonts, and MKV chaptering [only available via Quicktime with Perian, *not* VLC], and MPE is a winner.
Yes, there are minor little bugs [like forcing aspect ratio broken], but at this point MPE's a winner.
My nephew and I [Macross Frontier fans!] thank the dev. Fantastic job!
Also: The source builds very easily. Thank you for putting the source up as well!
