Hi dark :

Thanks for the responses.... But it's weird about Canola2 installing without Mplayer. I assume it's been designed to work both with or without it ?
Indeed. It works out of the box with the default media player as playback engine. This gives you the best compatibility with videos generated with the tablet converter. but is not as good as mplayer can be (but Mplayer embedded...like canola uses is not full speed as the standalone) so mplayer in canola is better for more formats.

Youtube plugin doesn't live without mplayer, so if you install youtube plugin it install mplayer.


Could anyone help with my q3? Just trying to figure out how to use network shares with Canola and find out if mediabox crashing during network share set up is an acknowleged bug.
We are only supporting by now UPNP shares. Samba share are in the queue to be implemented.

Many Thanks.
