MPlayer plays most MPEG, VOB, AVI, OGG/OGM, VIVO, ASF/WMA/WMV, QT/MOV/MP4, FLI, RM, NuppelVideo, YUV4MPEG, FILM, RoQ, PVA files, supported by many native, XAnim, and Win32 DLL codecs. You can watch VideoCD, SVCD, DVD, 3ivx, DivX 3/4/5 and even WMV movies, too (without the avifile library). The required codecs are available from the MPlayer site, and we have a SlackBuild script for them as well. If you have already installed the codecs on your own, then make sure the CODECSDIR variable in the script is defined correctly (or pass the correct value on the command line when running the SlackBuild script). This script is written to install the default "Blue" theme for MPlayer, and it will print an error (but allow you to continue) if you don't have the theme tarball in the build directory. You can obtain the Blue theme here: http://www.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/skins/Blue-1.7.tar.bz2 If you want to install some other theme, the script is written to support that, but other themes have not been tested with it. The best option for using additional themes/skins is to install them in $HOME/.mplayer by following the directions on the MPlayer homepage. You can speed-up decoding and encoding by passing RUNTIME_CPU=no to the build script. MPlayer supports DVD-Menu-Navigation; for it to work as expected, you will need to either write "mouse-movements=yes" into your mplayer.conf or start mplayer as "mplayer dvdnav:// -mouse-movements"
