MPlayer

Bah. While MPlayer is an utterly awesome video player, it has a few really nasty deficiencies:

  1. it is unable to jump between DVD chapters without a restart
  2. it has no support for switching angles on a DVD track without a restart
  1. fast-forwarding DVDs with more than one angle can result in the angle automagically changing for you (not very nice)

    What surprises me most is how trivial the first two points would be to implement. I might even have a go at firing up the MPlayer source and giving it a go myself. Maybe there is a specific reason it hasn’t already been done :)
