Overview

Mplayer is a media file player which can decode nearly every media file out there. It can also use countless output drivers (like vpdau or pulseaudio) Most of the time mplayer is in the background when you use frontends like gnome-mplayer, smplayer or gmusicbrowser. Those frontend bring their own set of parameters with them but you still can set up mplayer with it's config file (~/.mplayer/config). The vastness of those options scare most people away but with a little bit of help you can set up mplayer as you have never seen a media player before.
