Mingle brings group video chat to Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| The developers at Collabora have extended Jingle—a multimedia chat protocol
| for XMPP—so that it can support audio and video conversations with more than
| two participants. Support for this new XMPP extension, which they call
| Mingle, could eventually land in Empathy, the GNOME instant messaging client.

mplayer, real support
,----[ Quote ]
| MPlayer got bumped yesterday to a new snapshot (1.0_rc2_p28058), which isn’t
| all that interesting in itself, but there is one notable update for real
| codecs.

It seems likely that Linux distros have better codec support then Windows and
Apple Macs (without much extra work).

SMPlayer: A high quality wrapper
,----[ Quote ]
| Loosely speaking, in software terms, a wrapper is something that provides an
| alternate interface to another object. SMPlayer is an advanced multimedia
| player wrapped around MPlayer that provides a friendlier and more powerful
| front end to the underlying application. SMPlayer can play practically
| anything -- you can watch DVDs and VCDs, stream videos from a URL, or play
| audio CDs or MP3s.

SMPlayer Review - One of the Most Powerful Video Players for Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| Since it uses Qt 4, integration with KDE 4.x is very good and the interface
| blends smoothly in the environment. As for speed, comparing to players for
| KDE 3 like Kaffeine, it is a little slower (I'm referring to the interface's
| response only), but I hope this will get fixed as the time passes though.
|
| To sum it up, SMPlayer is a very impressing application and one of the most
| powerful video players for Linux, together with Kaffeine or VLC.
