[MPlayer-users] best player ever

[Corey Hickey]

Yeah. Console is better, most of the time. The only reason I ever use 
the GUI anymore is for seeking around within a file when I don't really 
know where I'm going. Regarding this, however, I was wondering: would it 
be possible to have a feature wherein seeking could be accomplished 
simply by click-and-dragging the mouse back and forth within the MPlayer 
output window? I realize this would be strange/impractical/impossible 
for some output methods, but if it could work, it would be pretty neat 
and useful.

Of course, MPlayer as it is already beats the tar out of all the other 
players I've ever tried. :) Keep up the great work!
