Well I can make a script that makes it all work _for me_ but the thing is that I have to make to much assumptions about how other people use there pc. mplayer is just one of those totaly configurable programs. You really have to study on it to get the best results. But anyway, if I compare mplayer with the windows players I have, boy does mplayer rule. But it is not a newbies program. I do agree now that you helped them as much as you can. Cya, Han.
