I updated my Precise system from the standard repos a few minutes ago,
and the mplayer2 bug is still there.

I have not yet tested it in Quantal using your ppa.

By the way, will Quantal work with non-pae kernels? I have two computers
where mplayer2 does not work, one is an IBM Thinkpad without pae and one
Dell pentium 4 with pae.

Now I have downloaded the daily build Lubuntu Quantal (Oct 17), made a
persistent USB drive with Unetbootin and installed your version of
mplayer2 from launchpad/gilir. It works in my Dell Dimension 4600
(pentium 4 with pae), where mplayer2 has never worked for me in Precise.
I have not done any thorough testing yet, only tested with an mp4 file
transformed by ffmpeg from an MTS file from my video camera.
