sorry I haven't got anything done... mobo coming....
xmms doesn't need mplayer. It can, it seems, treat mplayer as a kind of plug in.
That is really the thing. What is needed imho is a single media player app (or guis on one
)that handles video and audio of as many possible formats, and does stuff like playlists, etc. xmms probably isn't best for this. on my desktop, there is stuff that runs over xine, like totem, that works well. Maybe we can poke around and sort this bit out before I try to make a bb file (which, knowing me will likely involve chewing paint off my office walls ) and get something in oe.
Totem was around for awhile (what was the companion gnome audio player..?) maybe we should consider dusting that off, if progress was made?
