[MPlayer-users] Re: status of dvd:// and -dvd

[Chris Phillips]

Hmm, so Gentoo are using the wrong version in their ebuild? Their build 
did used to report that it was still rc5 even though the source is 
downloaded from mplayerhq.hu i *think* I thought they had an old version, 
but they seemed confident it was OK. anyone else found this on Gentoo?

thanks

chris
