Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kmplayer

In the latest version of mplayer uploaded to Gutsy, the -vop flag was 
completely removed and replaced with the -vf flag. Running mplayer with with 
the "-vop" flag causes mplayer to print the error message: "-vop has been 
removed, use -vf instead," to the console and die. Debian faced this same bug 
back in May. 
http://people.debian.org/~terpstra/message/20070508.194937.a2734f1d.en.html The 
fix is to rebuild kmplayer replacing all instances of the string "-vop" with 
the string "-vf." A temporary work around is to run: 
sudo sed -i "s/-vop /-vf  /g" /usr/lib/libkmplayercommon.so 
/usr/lib/libkdeinit_kmplayer.so
Spacing in the above command is critical, otherwise the alignment of the 
strings will be lost. If sed fails restore with:
sudo aptitude reinstall kmplayer
