Re: Sigh...

I haven't been able to test Dragon, but I really like Codeine for playing movies from DVD. The no-frills interface makes it nearly perfect for this.
To be *really* useful for playing compressed movies, it has to be able to change sound sync on the fly, though.
I also think you have to be able to skip forward-backwards and a few other things like that.
But as I said, I haven't tried Dragon - maye those things are already in in.

You can use the slider to skip forward and backward, just use the slider. True for Codeine and Dragon Player. If you mean in DVD chapters, that is a feature that I plan on adding in the future.

I don't get the point about changing sound sync though... I've never had this problem.

    Yes, of course, but it's much more precise to use the arrow keys to jump a few seconds backwards and forwards. Especially when you don't use a regular mouse, but a small trackball :)

    It's a rather common problem with .avi files. I don't know what causes it, though.
