Ping matthias!  Since it appears you're back...   :)

I'm pretty much at the verge of a final release, so I'd like to have this 
mplayer problem fixed. I can roll my own package if need be, but I prefer to 
stick with yours so we're on the "same page". Can you let me know whether 
you're thinking of re-rolling mplayer with those patches or not? If so, I'll 
use yours, if not, I'll roll one meself. ;)

Thanks!
