@Varthall One more question (can't found clear answer about in the issues on google-mape): did you found what cause crash of mplayer on exit in the 80% of times ?
I talk with Deniil, he say that possible it has to do something with "streams", just because for example as he say, if he use mplayer from his gui-launcher, then it not crashes on exit for him, but if he use it from all the others (like clipdown, plain running, from dopus/filer, from mui-owb) - then it crashes. I can't confirm it (because not tested mplayer so heavy in all the condition), but maybe it will give you some ideas.
But maybe that bug already fixed , and i can build for myself fixed version from code-google page ?
@kas1e I have not done any work on the crash on exit issue, I'm working on other parts now. Thanks for the hints though, that will help me when debugging the code.
I must be lucky then (or..am i using a different version? I use Mplayer summer edition from OS4 depot on SamFlex) here, although I don't use the gui launcher, mplayer never crashes on exit. I use it very often, whatch a movie (even with clip down) and no matter if I close it manually or wait for the movie to finish (where it closes automatically) it never crashed here (ho wait, once it crashed because a manually reduced the video window to a tiny spot, it would seem there is no limit in the reduction department, and whe you get tooo small, it crashes). I might complain about performance on hi-res videos, lack of vsync (DVplayer has it) but crashes on exit? Never happens here.

@Varthall If you can build current debug-version , i can test that stuff about crash on exit, and with debug info stack-trace will give us actual and usable information in which function crash happens.

Of course you don't see the crash. If you launch MPlayer from the shell then default is overlay - P96. The crash being discussed is for sdl. You can test this for yourself by using the argument: MPlayer -vo sdl [filename]

Never thought about the lack of vsync, I'll make some comparative tests between DVPlayer and MPlayer tonight and eventually open a new ticket, thanks for reporting it.

Thanks, but I'd first like to fix the memory leakage on exit, if the crashes are triggered by the same problem, fixing the leakage might fix the crashes as well.
For me it crashes on exit does not matter of what. I just download latest version and start to use it : all the time (well, i think 95% of time) on exit i have crash. Dunno use i by default SDL or not through (i just run it for vids as "mplayer video.avi".
One "benefit" of sdl output is that p96_pip can't handle some pixel formats or widths - although the latter should be dodgeable by -vf expand or scale filter.
kas1e: explicitly remove -quiet (maybe from config file) and it should report which one it is using.
As for the crashes on exit, what do you think it could be that differentiate my experience from others? (I mean, shouldn't they happen to all users?)
No idea really, I can't reproduce the crashes as well (I'm talking about the ones when replaying streaming videos), only the problem with unfreed memory on exit, which should be happening on your system as well.
@Varthal One annoying detail that should be fixed is that the background color is a very light grey. Of course if you play a movie matching the aspect ratio perfectly the background color doesn't show, but if you happen to play, say, a 2:35:1 movie on a 4:3 monitor or 16:10 monitor, everything that don't belong to the picture will be shown in (very) light grey. Basically instead of black bars you get almost "whiteish" ones, which are really distracting...

If you really want to help Varthall, please use shell and type: version full Mplayer and mention the version you are commenting on in your post, so he knows what version you are talking about. The Summer Reloaded version (latest public) is
