Hi,

> _FYI_, MPlayer makes the frontpage of LinuxWorld.
:)

> Quoting the journalist Joe Barr:
He is a tipical luser...  shouldn't write articles to such portals.
he doesn't like to RTFM and blame us because we at least wrote docs.
but if he ever read it, he didn't have any problems installing it...

and, he always use the word 'crash' for mplayer abortiong with user
messages. instead of reading them...

and his 'quick how(not)to' is buggy, he mentions install.sh together with
dvd, but it stands for divx4linux... he really didn't rtfmed just few lines.

it is not a problem, if he doesn't read fm, but he shouldn't say it's bad
or good unless he read it... a journalist should know that...
