BiS allows controls using the keyboard- does KM? I prefer BiS since some vids do not play using KM, but work with BiS. Makes no sense to me, since using same player, but there you go

Again, seems no way there is not some form of acceleration taking place with Mplayer. For not being optimized, it kicks the default player's butt for smooth playback on higher bit rate files
