This is the best mplayer ever!  Not only does it
play flv videos, it also plays AAC audio streams.
Liquidcompass has been using ACC more and more
for its radio stations.  Until now, I've been
unable to hear them.  Many thanks, Ron.

This new mplayer also has an improved readout.
I particularly like that the current volume
is now shown on the screen and changes as you 
increase/decrease it.

If you have a Pentium III, this mplayer will 
probably work for you.  Earlier computers 
probably won't work.  Later computers, maybe.

Cheers,
Steven
