This page is about the MPlayer port created by [[Team Twiizers]] to demonstrate the capabilities of [[DVDx]].  Since its initial release and apparent abandonment by Twiizers, the community has been treated to a few releases of unofficial binaries built on slight modifications to the codebase thanks to other independent coders.  For the ''other'' two ports of MPlayer intended to be used with multiple audio and video formats in a wide range of popular codecs and containers, see [[MPlayer CE]] and [[MPlayerWii]].
