Video Player change proposel

[leszek.lesner at web.de]

Generally speaking mplayer2 is superior to mplayer. But in the case of the the current builds in the Ubuntu repo the mplayer2 package is very buggy. So its a temporary issue which won't go away in this cycle as upgrading it is as far as I know forbidden. 
For Quantal there is already a newer version packaged that should run way better. The same gies for the gui gnome-mplayer which runs much nicer in Version 1.0.6 
You can test it for yourself on Quantal Alphas of Lubuntu if you wish.

Not necessarily re: Karl but if mplayer > mplayer2 why not make the former the default?

On second thought, both of my machines that have the mplayer lockup,
run on ATI graphics.  It's more than likely it's a driver bug, and I'm
completely wrong to blame mplayer.
