I was using my old G4, which had the "proper" version of MPlayer, not this silly MPlayer 2 that I stumbled upon. MPlayer 2 can't handle WMV files, while MPlayer runs them like a charm.

Avoid MPlayer 2, that's my opinion.

Sneaky indeed! - BobMacster

Meant to say, I got all excited when I saw how nicely MPlayer the original handles WMV files, so I went to my Intel Mac Mini and downloaded MPlayer 2, not realizing it was not the same program!! How silly to keep the same name I thought... but that's MHO.
