Installed umplayer

Most of the time I have been using mplayer or the gnome version of it.

Today i found a nice new player, also based on mplayer, but it seems to have some nice features. Its called UMPlayer.

It has some really nice feature.

First of all it can search youtube and play videos from there directly, as well as record them and store them on disk for you. And you can set you preferred quality in the preferences so you don’t have to choose every time.

Then its has a very nice interface, with themes and it handled full screen play better (I think) than mplayer.

So im very happy with it.

To install it, if you like me have 10.10 of Ubuntu/Kubuntu, you do the following:

If you are running the latest version its in the repository already.
