Hmm, I can't get this to work on OS X properly.

Well MPlayer is in extras and I'm sure some guis for it too so I can't really agree on this Besides, MPlayer gives a much wider support for different formats, but once I get gstreamer to work fine with all operating systems, I'll add it. But I can't see this as a show stopper.

That is true, I'll try to add something about this. But I've learned people don't read too well

Well it works perfectly here with what I have, but I guess you mean HD material and running out of cpu? I actually lowered the bitrate by default a bit, let's hope it gives a little smoother playback.

And thanks for the comments.
