8 For mplayer that's not true, I did it using selinux x86 hardened profile
9
10 I bought a shuttle to use it as a multimedia server, and I wasn't able
11 to compile mplayer with the default gcc profile, which is
12 i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.6.
13
14 I changed it with gcc-config to
15 i686-pc-linux-gnu-3.4.6-hardenednopiessp and mplayer compiles fine
16 (that was just a couple of hours ago).
17
18 Now mplayer looks well on my TV, and sounds good on my Hi-Fi.

20 For skype and miro, I didn't try.
