Ehhhm, yes ;-) Imho to avoid conflicts we should use a costum libcss
with renamed function names or something similar ... Or (though I've
never check it yet) we should use libdvdcss instead of libcss (again:
I've not checked libcss for this purpose). Yes, it's bad from me not to have
time to work with mplayer nowdays :( I hope I will have more time some
weeks later.
