I read all the recent posts, but there is no solution for my problem. I'm using MPlayer Extended Rev8 on my G4 Powerbook with 1,67 Ghz. When I try to get subtitles displayed, I only get small barcode-like strips. Is it possible the required font is not installed on my system?

How to delete unnecessary files on a Mac OS X? I recently just bought a Mac Mini and got Mac OS X 10.5.6 -- The newest version. But I bought it from someone used and it still has their files on it... I dont know where they are at all! I've tried looking in tonnes of folders but I cant find them. Is there anyway to find these files? Using a program or what?

You can try my mplayer2 builds here: http://code.google.com/p/mplayerosx-builds/, I provide both binaries for the mplayerosx extended gui and a standalone mplayer2 application that might appeal more to power users.

VLC 2.0 released, I'm at work so there's not much I can do, but has anyone tried it yet?

Thanks for pointing this out. I just tried it and it looks like VLC might be my main program again, since I'm not crazy about Perian/Quicktime. Note that the new interface takes some getting used to. I had to use the menu to toggle video playback! Shift-Command-P twice should turn the video on and off. I found that highly counter-intuitive, but now that I remember that trick, I will be testing VLC extensively. |

VLC 2.0 seems to be doing much better than version 1 when it comes to some of the more demanding files. I've started to use it randomly, whereas I had previously switched over to mplayer OSX extended after VLC choked on some more complicated files. If anything, VLC 2.0 has handled certain files better than mplayer OSX extended.
The only bad thing about upgrading at the moment is that Handbrake doesn't recognize VLC 2.0. For the DVD encoders who use Handbrake on the DVD directly, that can be a problem. Not sure when Handbrake is going to update to make use of the new VLC.

Was just given a mac mini at the office so will be trying out vlc 2.0 for mac. Previous version seemed only ok ... but it is nice to see an upgrade for vlc to begin with.

The embarrassing thing is that at the moment both VLC and mplayer2 using GUI are not using the correct coefficients for color output so the video they display is actually wrong. |

It's been a few weeks, and I'm very impressed with VLC so far. There were a few videos that would cause mplayer OSX extended to lag and skip, yet VLC played them without a problem. Looks like it's going back to being my default MKV player.
