Hi there Damian, You used the RPM's from that site, and compiled MPlayer yourself, or did you use a pre-compiled MPlayer? It's just that I'm too lazy to test it all out due to lack of time. As I said, I am writing a guide how to rip a DVD (16:9) to DivX using mencoder / libavcodec / liblame, and although I always advise to recompile everything, it's interesting to know if users have other experiences with pre-compiled binaries.
