MPlayer + Frontend

http://deje.uw.hu/
Those who don't know the gratest media player ever, visit mplayer homepage: http://mplayerhq.hu

Unfortunately, this player is mainly for Linux systems, Windows port lacks the graphical user interface. Operating a media player from command line is not so good, so I wrote a frontend (inspired by Smerli) to ease your job! The only thing you should do is to download the latest version, install it and use it! You don't have to install ANY codec-s, as this player already contains almost everything.
