There was already a discussion about that in the alpha2 iso thread but I think<br>
it's better to discuss this in a thread of its own.<br>
<br>
Most people "voted" for smplayer in the other thread, which would be fine with<br>
me. It's qt based (nothing against gtk, but using a gtk based application as<br>
default in kde is just weird. try to do it the other way arround and you'll be<br>
lynched by gnome fans), its backend mplayer is a powerfull player.<br>
But: I'm having a strange thing about it on my Mageia box: I start it, I open<br>
an ogg file, I play it. I close smplayer, start it again and it won't play the<br>
same ogg file anymore. I close smplayer again rm ~/.config/smplayer start it<br>
again, it plays my file and so on. Anybody else having the same thing? Is it a<br>
bug or just pebcak?<br>
<br>
Others preffered dragon player, which is KDE's default. We could but I don't<br>
really like it, since it's a bit too simplistic in my eyes.<br>
<br>
I personally prefer kaffeine. It's working just fine for me, has many more<br>
options then dragon player. But some of you told it's not stable enough (in<br>
what way?) and some don't like it because it's not using phonon but libxine<br>
directly.<br>
<br>
The next option would be totem which I hate (just a personal thing). And it's<br>
a gtk application which I consider weird as default in KDE.<br>
<br>
Then there is kmplayer, I haven't really used it till now, but it's working<br>
and it's offering you playback of local files, optical media and tv (which I<br>
couldn't test due to not existing hardware.<br>
<br>
Next option would be xine-ui which definitely is looking a bit old fashioned.<br>
<br>
Did I forget anything? And what do you think?<br>
