IME, I also find that xine "just works" for more stuff, which is why I use |
14 |
kaffeine as my default player. It uses the xine engine by default but can |
15 |
be switched over to various other engines as needed. |

I also have kmplayer and mplayer-plug-in hanging arounf my system, but |
18 |
kaffeine gets FAR more use. |
