MPlayer2 Is Still Alive & Kicking

The should rename their media player. It's confusing to have two different media players with almost identical names. Many people will think they are the same except mplayer2 is the newer version. If somebody forked Firefox and released it under the name "Firefox 12", I'm sure the Mozilla lawyers would be on to them for trademark violation. I don't know about the trademark status of mplayer, but even if it's not it's not the right thing to do.
I can't wait for a fork called mplayer3.

unable to play VCD in mplayer2 while works in mplayer1.
Hi all,
Apologies as posting on quite an oldish thread.
I am on Debian sid and use the debian-multimedia repo to keep my multimedia stuff together. I came to know about mplayer2 just a day back and then saw the whole article and thread at phoronix. I tried posting my issue at the mailing list but for some reason it seems it does not work.
Anyway this is the current version of mplayer2 I have :-

This shouldn't happen. It can be a bug in the MPlayer code _or_ in your drivers _or_ in your gcc version. If you think it's MPlayer's fault, please read DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports.html and follow the instructions there. We can't and won't help unless you provide this information when reporting a possible bug.

Only because there were no new releases, it does not mean it is dead. Not every project wants to do such quick updates as kde or firefox (or kernel, recently).
Just enjoy the commit log of mplayer2:
This website is for sale! mplayer2.org is your first and best source for information about mplayer2. Here you will also find topics relating to issues of general interest. We hope you find what you are looking for!
I don't think, a dead project could produce such a log...
