MPlayer is a movie player. It plays most MPEG, VOB, AVI, VIVO, ASF/WMV,
QT/MOV, FLI, NuppelVideo, yuv4mpeg, FILM, RoQ, OGG and some RealMedia
files, supported by many native, XAnim, and Win32 DLL codecs. You can
watch VideoCD, SVCD, DVD, 3ivx, FLI, and even DivX movies too (and you
don't need the avifile library at all!). The another big feature of
mplayer is the wide range of supported output drivers. It works with
X11, Xv, DGA, OpenGL, SVGAlib, fbdev, AAlib, but you can use SDL (and
this way all drivers of SDL), VESA (on every VESA compatible card, even
without X!), and some lowlevel card-specific drivers (for Matrox, 3Dfx
and Radeon) too! Most of them supports software or hardware scaling, so
you can enjoy movies in fullscreen. MPlayer supports displaying through
some hardware MPEG decoder boards, such as the DVB and DXR3/Hollywood+ !
And what about the nice big antialiased shaded subtitles (9 supported
types!!!)
