Im currently running live versions of both gecko-mediaplayer and
gnome-mplayer and largely running without any problems. Do note that the
versions in portage are quite old, 0.9.3 is the latest release and you may
have problems with sandbox violations using the 0.9.3 ebuilds attached to
bugzilla [1], however if your feeling brave the live -9999 ebuilds do work
quite well.
