I don't really know why i put that there i 've read sth which i thought is similar to my problem on these forums but it proved wrong , i just removed chromium to be sure from my system and the problem is still there.  in vlc no problem with sound in xine no problem but why mplayer? i really want to use mplayer, even more smplayer as it remembers playback position.
