I accept the fact that I am in the wrong place.

So don't be mad at *me*.

So don't be mad at *me*.

What I cannot accept is being told to RTFM when the *real* problem is that 
the FM is FOutdated. Of course, I could have cleared up that little 
misunderstanding long ago, if only someone had responded. This is why I 
prefer dragon breath to silence. Speaking of which, if you really want 
better bug reports, a puff or two in the direction of the maintainers of the 
docs may do the trick.

Yes, everyone works on the project for free in his spare time.
Yes, I could spend some money and get some software that will work for me.
Yes, I don't have a right to a response.
Yes, I am in the wrong place, but this is where I was told to go.

Just don't accuse me falsely.

I will sign up at MPlayer-cygwin as soon as I find out how, as the link in 
the documentation (http://mplayerhq.hu/mailman/listinfo/mplayer-cygwin) is 
not working.

I think that this thread can be closed now, and I will make one last post on 
the topic of subscribing.
