That makes sense as it's the "kde frontend" for mplayer. I had some real problems with kmplayer and mplayer not playing nice. Kmplayer was sending commandline parameters that the latest versions of mplayer didn't understand. Try the realplayer plugin ans see if it works. -- From the Desk of: Jerome D.
