After I read your mail, I tried mpv. It really works perfect. Video playback of HD-videos is smoother on my machine and also some other functions (e.g. toggling deinterlacing, switching audio language) are working much better than with mplayer/mplayer2. I was a mplayer/mplayer2 user for many many years but now I'm converted. ;-) Regards wabe
