Sorry, a real beginner here, but I just upgraded from Gutsy to Hardy, and so far the only thing giving me grief is the streaming video playback from Firefox. Its pretty choppy compared to the VLC I ran as default in Gutsy.
I followed your directions in the sticky (Big Thanks for that!!!!) and the only trouble I had was in following your instructions below:
"New users of Ubuntu or MPlayer should open the main MPlayer application after installing it for the first time, this will then cause it to create it's default folder in your home directory. Also, please navigate to Preferences>Audio in MPlayer, and then tick the "Enable Software Mixer" option."
When I go to Applications->Sound&Video->MPlayer Movie Player, all I get are the following two windows from MPayer, which do not give me the option to go to Preferences. Do I need to reinstall MPlayer? I have had good luck with VLC in the past. The DVD play with VLC is wonderful.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
