thanks, but that is pretty un-intuitive.
xine uses arrow up/down for the speed... a combination where I do not need to
span my fingers over half the keyboard..
But mplayer also jumps forward with mouse wheel up, and backwards with mouse
wheel down... the opposite of what I would expect. If you read a book, you
read from top down.. so going downwards is forward. ;)
