Hi, from this thread we have 4 candidates to maintain mplayer: Julian Sikorski which maintain the gnome-mplayer. I (Sérgio Basto) which co-maintain smplayer. Richard Shaw , which helps if it is need it (and have more admin permissions, though). Joseph D. Wagner which wish a mplayer updated.
A little note: I though that was updated, for me mplayer with 18 months is updated :) I saw for the first time real HD (mkv) in my laptop with current mplayer on rpmfusion. we got ffmpeg-0_10 http://buildsys.rpmfusion.org/build-status/job.psp?uid=12011 and src.rpm http://buildsys.rpmfusion.org/logs/fedora-development-rpmfusion_free/12011-ffmpeg-0.10-1.fc18/ who begging packaging ? or how we organize ourselves? I will pick ffmeg 0.10 compile for F16 and try update mplayer on F16 too . On Mon, 2012-02-20 at 11:29 -0800, Joseph D.
