Description:
 Video player plugin for Konqueror using MPlayer,
Xine or GStreamer. Like MPlayer, the Xine and
GStreamer backend are out-of-process players. So
it will not crash konqueror when Xine or GStreamer
crashes.
Also a simple tool for video playing and
recording. Supports many playlist formats,
including PLS, M3U, ASX, XSPF, SMIL and podcast
RSS/Atom, plays all links directly from the
internet. Other specialties are DVD, CDROM, VCD
and VDR support.

Changelog:
 Changes since version 0.9.3a
- Support for MPlayer ICY stream info
- Fix flashing/resizing infowindow between two
items having info
- Podcast item w/o an enclose but having a
description now keep them self active for a
calculated time
- Fix easy breaking reading CDATA sections
- Changed intro animation, making it slightly
shorter and using fade transition
- Add support for SMIL linknodes a and area, brush
and transiton (only fade)
- RealPix's fades now realy fades in or out
- Moved SMIL/RealPix painting to libcairo
- Fix auto hiding controlpanel disappeared after
switching to console view
- Fix autohiding controlpanel when there is also a
statusbar

0.9.x versions are the begin of playlist support,
but trying very hard not to duplicate the ones
found in the audio players and kaffeine. Current
idea is using a subset of SMIL as a document
format. This means no list of playable entries,
but more like a presentation.
I'm open for ideas for a good editor :-).
