> Xine does just about everything mplayer does... I've tested xine on Mdk 9.0: in my opinion it's still slow to open a fill, slow to navigate throw a video, and quite buggy. The configuration menu is really horrible and very difficult to understand. I really prefer MPlayer: fast, simple; it's far better than every video players that can be found on windows (it's one of the opensource application we can find on linux that make a good impression on windows users). Whereas xine is worse that Windows Media Player in terms of speed/stability/functionnalities.
