[kde-announce] KMPlayer 0.9.1

Name: KMPlayer
Version: 0.9.1
Type: Video Application
Depend: KDE 3.1.x
License: LGPL

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 podcast RSS/Atom, plays all links
directly from the internet. Other specialties are
DVD, VCD and VDR support.

Changelog:
 Compared with the KMPlayer-0.9.0c version, there
are improvements all over the place. Highlights
are XML export of playlist, shorter and cooler
begin/end animations, position and resizing
tweaks, network bandwidth settings,
playlist/infowindow/statusbar controls for plugin,
audio/subtitles within a stream support, playtime
timer added in statusbar and search feature for
playlist. Of course bug fixes, better support for
ASX and SMIL.

Changes since version 0.9.1-rc1
- Added Find/FindNext in playlist's context menu
- Intro-movie's background will finish when
clicked on its background
- Fix possible crash w/ plugin if javascript did a
'put' on an unknown property
- Support reading playlist files from media:// or
remote:// protocols, movie   files that resolve to
these, still doesn't work though
- Support SMIL's 'begin' attribute on group tags
(seq/par/excl) as well
- Fix not honouring MPlayer's aspects detection in
case it's not width:height
- Fix MPlayer with the X11Shm video driver not
scaling correctly when   'keep aspects' is set
- Fix Xine not resuming on 'pause' when pressing
the 'pause' button again
- Fix to not let the session manager restore a
backend application as well
- Support for CONTROLS="StatusBar" for plugin,
having the same statusbar as application. See
tests/controls.html, after installing
KMPlayer-plugin,  with konqueror (also used on
many sites when choosing for real format)

0.9.x versions are the begin of playlist support,
but trying very hard not to dublicate 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 :-).
