mplayer from multimedia overlay is a replacement for the regular, |
15 |
official mplayer with the only change being ffmpeg-mt. It can't be |

mplayer-uau is a fork of MPlayer, previously known as "mplayer-git", |
20 |
before the developer was kicked from the mplayer project for unknown |
21 |
reasons. While mplayer from multimedia only adds the ffmpeg-mt patch, |
22 |
mplayer-uau adds more patches. |
