Another thank-you-mail here. > Perhaps you will, like me, see no reason for using mplayer after having gone > through that document and/or trying out mpv ;) . It took me maybe an hour to read through the manpage and migrate my mplayer settings, but mpv looks really great. Plus its install footprint is only 3 megs instead of 20 (including debug stuff). I was virtually an mplayer-only-user ever since I switched to linux. I tried mplayer2 long ago, but ditched it (I think due to the lack of mencoder). Recently I had been using vlc for playback with complex subtitles in Japanese anime series, but otherwise actually liked mplayer 1’s subtitle output, b/c it allowed for subs to be shown in the black margins below the video in fullscreen mode. -- Gruß | Greetings | Qapla’ Please do not share anything from, with or about me with any Facebook service.
