(likely a recurring topic - sorry!)

ISTM that mplayer and mplayer2 are each quite active.

While I've been quite pleased with mplayer as tweaked by Nikos
Chantziaras to allow Multi threading on my core-I7 (Nvidia) (and I
realize that MT will now be in the upstream distribution), I'm wondering
if mplayer2 is now stable and better enough to merit switching.

TIA
