Hello,

first of all i have to say that mplayer is a
kick-ass-top-notch-movie-player!!! Thousand Thanks for Coding this
i-eat-all-media-formats-you-through-at-me-beast!.

Then to my small feature wish ;)

The "timer" on the OSD showing only the time elapsed is not _that_ useful
IMHO. it would be cool to have a "elapsed/total" time display, that way you
know how long the movie will take.

Another feature worth discussing is some sort of "playlist skipping".
Imagine having downloaded some small clips from the internet, and you want
to watch them all. 'mplayer *.mpg', easy enough. the "bad" thing is, that
you can't skip _between_ movies. mapping the (n)ext and (p)revious keys to
"play next movie specified on cmd line" or "play previous movie on cmd
line" would be _very_very_ cool.

anyways, thanks for giving us this cool player (i guess i already said
that...)

PS: please CC me, i'm not on the list
