Hmm. I tried playing a .mov file in noatun and it would not play at all. The
handbook says noatun is an artsd synthesizer sound app. What kind of video can
you play in it?

I've had success with 'xine' 'kmplayer' (very slow) 'mplayer' (ok but full
screen) and 'kaffeine"

Of all the players, 'xine' and 'kaffeine' provided the best windowed video,
'mplayer' provided the best full-screen playback.

I guess 'xine' is installed as a dependency to the kmplayer build, but on its
own is a good player -- much faster than kmplayer -- that's for sure...
