Hello all.

There'a new kid on the mplayer block... http://jaime.gemelo.free.fr/javamplayer/index.html

I made a pet of it. (That said, it did not contain the adapted mplayer executable, so I removed it. You're better off going to the web site above and compiling it yourself, as I was unsuccessful in compiling the specialized mplayer it requires. I apologize to any who may have already downloaded it. javaMPlayer works with the mplayer included in wary, however, according to the maintainer, that mplayer does not bring out the full features of javamplayer.
I'll put a link back in here once that mystery is solved. )

[part removed by musher0] it looks like this (see attached)

Most interesting are the author's scripts which create to download and play media streams directly --- from youtube, dailymotion, etc.

With javaMPlayer you can also play the usuals, i.e. radio and tv streams, CDs, DVDs, etc. etc.

You'll need -- obviously -- a java installed, [part removed by musher0] In my tryout, javaMPlayer appeared to "unhook" my favorite radio stations much less frequently than the regular mplayer -- meaning, somehow this incarnation of mplayer seems more stable.

Enjoy!

Interesting. Thanks for that.
