+        Disabling the starting/ending animation can be configured by editing <filename>~/.kde/share/config/kmplayerrc</filename> and modify
+        <programlisting>
+[General Options]
+  No Intro=0
+    </programlisting>
+    the above option to '1'. Just add this option if it's not there yet.

+    It's also possible to set an alternative animation. KMPlayer will look at resp. <filename>~/.kde/share/apps/kmplayer/intro.xml</filename> and <filename>~/.kde/share/apps/kmplayer/exit.xml</filename>. The format has to be a supported <acronym>XML</acronym> file.

+<para>
+    The intro animation doesn't have to be a short one, because it will automatically end when another source is opened. Of course for the exit animation this would be a bit annoying, however the user can always end the application twice.

+    A simple example of an intro, showing your favorite photo can be
+    <programlisting>
+<smil>
+  <body>
+    <img dur="indefinite" src="file:///home/koos/mum.gif" fit="meet"/>
+  </body>
+</smil>
+    </programlisting>
+    In KMPlayer's source package, in the <filename>tests/</filename> are some examples of <acronym>SMIL</acronym> that KMPlayer supports.
