When gnome-player finally stops working, I'll switch.  I'm afraid to
switch right now because it may break gnome-player.  It may not even
compile anymore basically.  I'm testing other players but all of them
have their cons, which annoys me.  I'm a creature of habit.

Thanks for the info.  At least now I know.
