Title says it all. I'd like to use the default OS2008 media player for my videos since mplayer only plays my xvid files real choppy, so I can play my converted (mp4) files properly. Mplayer freezes with mp4 files.

This wiki page is what you want.
Or this thread, or maybe this one, or possibly this one.
You're an a-hole.

WTF is wrong with you? Did someone piss in your cornflakes?
This is a new forum on a new subject. It could develop into a useful resource on this site.

I am sorry e-motion for this crap. I don't know the answer to your question but I will not point somewhere else and pretend I do.
Hopefully your thread will eventually give you the answer you need and can serve as a useful link for others in the future...

Well, I'm a newbie but I figured it out. On top of that, it fixes the stretching issue.
Go to home/user/.atabake, edit config and change general = mplayer to general = oms. Works like a charm.

No need to jump down my throat, guys. I was just trying to help with what I assumed to be relevant information. The original post was just a little unclear, and I made an assumption as to what the OP was looking for (and not an unreasonable one based on his post). There was no attitude in my post, implied or actual, I was just trying to help.
Guess I've generated a lot of ill will around here for some reason. :/
Also of note: I arrived here from the front page and didn't notice this was the Canola forum (it wasn't mentioned in the OP). It's funny how rudeness can go both ways.

From what I heard, if mplayer is installed, canola will use it by default. Check this reply from handful over at Jaiku: http://jmoney.jaiku.com/presence/21555248#c-629156
hi guys canola doesnt install mplayer but if it installed it uses it for vdeo playback. You dont need to set anything up but seems that we will place a settings to change back to default media player for those who prefer

Good deal dude and good post.
BTW, how did you "Go to home/user/.atabake" Through what means? File manager? Xterm?
(I know this is answered in the Wiki, but providing the answer here may add to this threads usefulness and help new members. It may also reduce future, redundant threads.
)And General, I'm sorry I snapped. No ill will here dude.

What I don't get is before answering the least that could be done is read the post. And I'm sorry but if you speak a correct english my post was very clear that I wasn't asking for help in encoding video files.
To answer your question YoDude, I had to use the emelFM2 file manager that is located on wardenclyffetower.com/maemofiles because otherwise I have no idea how to get to these directories.
