The bug report got some updates, it's not Dolphin's or KDE's fault, but mplayer2's, happens whenever it is started from a file manager. Something with terminal keyboard controls enabled by the file manager, but with stdin not being connected to anything readable. It's fixed upstream: http://devel.mplayer2.org/ticket/146 Meanwhile, option -noconsolecontrols also helps. Wonko

So it's not a problem for me, but I assumed it might be for others, so I filed the bug. But now it seems it's an indication of deeper problems I have. Another thing I just found out is that I cannot drag favicons from Konqueror to the desktop any more, but it works as another user. Wonko

Another thing that happens to me only. I filed a bug about this: > https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=415241 I just found out it only happens when I start the video from within Dolphin, and as my user. From the command line, or as another user with an unconfigured KDE desktop, it does not happen. Something is very weird here. Maybe I should start over with a clean KDE environment, AGAIN. But I really really hate to do this every once in a while. Can't these things just work? Wonko
