I appreciate your vote of confidence.  Hopefully, I'll at least
partially succeed.

I am highly motivated to make some progress here.  I am annoyed that I
must use 6 different media players to play my own content (because of
various capabilities/advantages).  I hope to give mplayer its missing
features to reduce that number (hopefully, eventually, to just 1).

At present, I think xine is the easiest target.  Right now, I only use
xine for its DVD menu support, and its more seamless file transitions.
