Mplayer is the the defacto linux standard for media/video. At least
that is what I have seen. Gnome/Kde desktops should have no problem
there. Im sure there are windowmakers/managers that people love the
most, but for most people, either new to nix or not concerned with
bloat, Gnome/Kde and Mplayer should suffice. Besides, people who are
more advanced will be able to figure it out ;) enjoy. <br>

Great question. I'll send a post or two about doint the videocasting in
a few days hopefully. Partly that will be a request for suggestions
about what sw to use to send & rcv the videocast - so anything you know
or learn about good ways to do that will be of benefit to the group.
Do you (or anyone reading this list) have any suggestions on that topic?
Video streaming? MPlayver vlc, mythtv ?
I'm gonna invite a friend to this list shortly who will probably have
some good suggestions on this topic.
