Depends on your keyboard. On a US keyboard, {}/[] are just fine, of
course on a German one it will be as unintuitiv

there is a mechanism to change the keybindings to suit your choic

I could not make much out of that error message (still need to learn a lot of
languages ;) ) but looks like a problem with your video output driver

I like the mplayer gui / keyboard controls a lot, but recently I have
the impression xine is outperforming mplayer.
I have seen mplayer choke (dropping frames, sloppy audio-video sync)
on avi files that xine handles perfectly. I have very rarely seen the
reverse. My mplayer has long stopped workin

Bookmarks: Set a mark at certain places in a movie that one can
return to. Set many. With one of the viewers, one can name
the bookmarks. THis is valuable for teaching.

I am interested in this discussion. I spent a weekend trying out
several players. Of the few I tried, I liked xine-ui best,
perhaps, for it's playability. However, ogle, goggles, and
kmplayer give the gift of bookmarks. Is there any way to do
bookmarks w/ Xine or Mplayer? Mplayer is nice also.

companion mencoder which has a good reputation in the transcoding
stakes.
xine and vlc also work well, and I have nothing against them except my
familiarity with mplayer. I use vlc a

mplayer is nice too, but while xine is able to save the correct aspect ratio
while resizing, mplayer only has 100%, 200% and fullscreen. (if i
what's the best video player in your opinion?
Kaffeine is great for playing DVDs. I use kaffeine when in KDE. Kplayer
is also good. Kplayer can use xine or mplayer as the backend, which is a
nice feature. I prefer mplayer with directfb on the console though.
Mplayer simply is great!

Hi,
For me it is more about which one of the video players I am able to properly configure.
Right now I prefer gxine and kaffeine (xine-lib based).
Those two pretty much can play anything.
