That was set to MPlayer.  I tried setting it to both gstreamer and xine.  The 
clip I fed it includes quite a lot of night photography - very dark 
backgrounds.  Neither handled it well.  Xine stuttered.  Gstreamer gave what 
looked like a series of stills.  I fed the same clip to DragonPlayer.  It 
sailed smoothly through the whole of that night stuff.  There's just no 
competition.
