Media player front end for gstreamer, mplayer and libflashplayer

A bit slow.
Haven't been able to play any local videos though; screen starts flashing uncontrollably, and I've only been able to hard-reboot to fix it.
Not all terrible, but could certainly use some work. Maybe demote to extras-testing and go through QA again?
kmplayer is only a front-end/GUI for already installed player like gstreamer and mplayer. BUT: for gstreamer the mediaplayer-gui is the best. for mplayer i would say that SIB is the smartest GUI - it's not as shiny as kmplayer but it's way less resource hungry and it seems that it starts mplayer with the best options to optimize it for use on the n900.
mplayer + SIB simply kicks ass. forget gstreamer and vlc for now. ;)
From what I've used of it, its worse than the built in media player. Not ready for prime time just yet.
Has anyone installed this app for N900? How is it? Is it another media player or does it work with the existing media player? Are you able to work with playlists easier than the existing Mplayer? Thanks.
