Yes mplayer is a wonderful program once you get it to compile and 
install satisfactorly (it took some fiddlin' and also a bit to figure 
out gui support isn't in by default) I still haven't gotten it so 
that it will run as non-root but I have no idea why (actually I might 
just need to give read privs to the codecs or something). Anyway 
mplayer is a very lovely program and combined with xmms it fufills 
all my multimedia needs ^_^

Oh and thanks everyone for the comments, I'm going to have to try out 
a few different window managers now.
