2003.08.13, Wednesday :: MPlayer 0.91 released!
posted by Gabucino
This is a surprise release. If you've payed attention to the MPlayer news, you know that we've been continuously maintaining the 0.90 codebase, backporting fixes from the 'main' branch.
This is the last release from that branch. We don't have the manpower to maintain it any longer, nor has it any sense. This release does not contain recent new features of the 'main' branch, like opensource Sorenson 3, and others!!! Consider this as a bugfix release for MPlayer v0.90, and be ready for
MPlayer v1.0pre1 in just a few days!!! The ChangeLog:
