i will try whatever you have there....playing around with mplayer and various GUIs and builds....the problem is my GF has an old Toshiba lappy w/ PIII...and i have a hard time finding a player which does NOT cause problems.

I test the PIII builds on her laptop..and i see she has terrible problems with MPUI (and the CDruid optimized mplayer build)..i don't know why...but it is extremely choppy w/ XVid et. , bringing her comp down to the knees

But with the *same* mplayer executable/build i have GOOD
results with MPF (Mplayer frontend) on her comp...must be some setting issue.
"Good" means that picture quality and speed are awesome, but in SOME movies the audio was out of sync. (Some movies more than others). But then MPUI would just slow it down to almost an halt so i cant even use it.
