Yes, I'd prefer to use mplayer as the player, but if I want to watch it
in real time, without dumping an MPEG2 file on my disk everytime, vlc is
the only way to go.
I guess the vlc/mplayer combo is good if I want to do timeshifting
(pausing a live program). Is this how it works now in Freevo even when
just watching live TV ?
