2. test the progress slider: works fine (sometimes it doesnt work already
here properly)
3. drag&drop the same file into the gnome-mplayer window
4. the slider wont work

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

i made the following observations:
1.
when i use the arrow keys i can jump in the movie as before...
PgUp+PgDn work fine, too...
2.
when i click on the progress bar (slider) in the gnome-mplayer window, the movie
scrolls back to the beginning (0:00:00)...

Please turn off the force cache option and see if this issue goes away.

I believe this issue was fixed in SVN when the force cache option was used 
about a
week ago.

ok...
when i turn off "force cache", i can use drag&drop and the slider thingy...

but now it uses mplayer's "-nocache" option, although the file is on a local 
disk...
how can we fix that?

should i just wait for rpmfusion's next update?

Using -nocache on a file on a local disk is fine, normally things work quite 
well
this way.

maybe my local disks r too slow?
i use a md raid1 on 2 old PATA disks, that show up as SCSI disks to linux (i 
think
the main board (asrock - ALiveDual-eSATA2) does that with several layers of disk
controller )...

Ok, couple of changes, so you will have to wait for the next release if you 
can't
build the code.

1. The problems with force cache are fixed
2. When playing from local disk normally cache is not required and so it is 
disabled.
However, if you have GIO enabled and it determines if the file is not on the 
local
machine, caching will be enabled. 

If you have SATA disks they should be plenty fast enough to play back media,
especially in a RAID configuration. It might be that you don't have enough RAM 
in
your system and so you are swapping alot, but that is guess. I have an old SUN
machine that can play media (except x264 stuff) pretty reliably and it is only 
140Mhz.

ok
thank u...

i'm happy with my "PgUp"+"PgDn" workaround now... :-)

i think my file system (ext3fs) doesn't do enough read ahead...

bye
