Hi all, some months ago i started to develop a new player for linux, Xt7-Player.
Before you ask, yes, it is "yet another gui for mplayer", I know there are plenty out there, but Xt7 aims to expose most of mplayer options without sacrifing usability.
Users which doesn't know anything about mplayer should find it easy to use, while experienced ones should feel just at home.
Relevant features follows:
Video controls and video area attached within a single window.
Support for local,network and 'exotic' protocols, as mplayer does.
(ftp,http,smb,tv,radio,pvr and so on)
Pan&Scan features via mouse buttons/gestures
Speed tweaks
Local and global hotkey managment, with freedom to bind actions to mouse and/or keyboard buttons.
High configurable subtitles language and aspect with support for plain and ssa styles.
Ability to choose audio and video codecs priority
Support for a wide range of audio and video drivers with their own sub-options with the ability to prioritize them via drag'n drop.
"Stackable" Audio and video filters managed via drag'n drop.
Every single audio and video filter has it's own options to configure, strictly following mplayer style.
Mplayer has toons of filters, if you need something which hasn't been implemented in Xt7, you can use the "custom" filter to write your own.
Support for multiple audio And subtitle streams.
Fullscreen interface with "popup" controls
Per window and application wide settings load/save.
Profiles managment
Media library syncronization with media tags and playlist support as long as configurable Inline search.
Xt7 is a GNU GPL licensed project developed in Gambas,
It requires a GNU/Linux system as long as Kde 3.x DE and (of course) gambas and mplayer.
Extra functionality are available by installing xbindkeys and audiotags.
Some screenshots (http://xt7player.homelinux.org/xt7forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=2)
Project support forums is just up and running here (http://xt7player.homelinux.org/xt7forum)
You can find source code as well as packages for gentoo,ubuntu,debian,mandriva,fedora and opensuse Here (http://xt7player.homelinux.org/xt7forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=3)
If you find this project useful, feel free to use it's boards to submit bugs, request new features and so on, i really need it.
Have Fun!
