[MPlayer-users] mplayer crashes

[Don]

Well, I've ran Linux since 1998.
However, I am a user.
I'm use to clicking on;
Start, Multimedia, Mplayer and have it open.
I then select a movie and wala... a movie plays.
Now it does nothing.
That is why I was trying to open it in a console

My goal is to get kdetv working.
