I have simple .avi files that nor Mplayer nor Gstreamer read here. I only have sound with both players on these files. With VLC (which I finally successfully installed, my problem had nothing to do with PR 1.3), they are correctly played and it is smooth enough. Subtitles work fine too. The only problem is that I don't know how to switch from fullscreen back to windowed mode, a double tap won't do anything. Any idea welcome here.

The combination of KMplayer (although I hate this GUI) and VLC is thus useful, but I'd like a better GUI for Mplayer to be honest, like SMplayer (which existed on the N900, perhaps a port would be possible).
