+ Here you can find everything needed to get MPlayer up and running.
The recommended way to install MPlayer is to compile from source.
Look at the
<a href="projects.html#unofficial_packages">unofficial packages</a>
section of our projects page if you do not wish to compile from
source and/or are looking for packages that may be more tightly
integrated with your platform.
- Just remember that we do not support any unofficial packages,
- only the official ones listed below.
+ You might also want to check out the
+ <a href="http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/projects.html#mplayer_frontends">other frontends</a>
+ since there is no further development and limited bug fixing for the
+ included graphical user interface.

+ Be advised that we do not support any unofficial packages, only the
+ official ones listed below. If you have trouble with unofficial
+ packages, get support from the respective authors.
