The wiki states that mplayer porting is medium priority... Correct me if I'm wrong, but I feel like video playback is the most used aspect of xbmc for most users... mplayer video playback is MUCH better than dvdplayer so I'm wondering if any progress has been made with mplayer?
With close to 500 movies on my smb server, I can throw any of them at mplayer on my current hardware and they all play without a hitch.... but using the same hardware and xbmc I would say only about 3/4 of them play without any problems and cpu usage is always higher with xbmc/linux..
I swear I'm not complaining and I know that it's still very early.. I'm just asking and wondering if the mplayer porting has made any progress...
