Well, the mplayer plugin actually uses pmExtern. This playmode was
introduced only to make the mplayer playback possible (damn hard
to convince Klaus of this ;).

So at the first look the dxr3-mplayer playback should work out of
the box, right?
Seems to be a bug somewhere...

The mplayer playback is constructed with:

cMPlayerPlayer::cMPlayerPlayer(const char *FileName)
:cPlayer(pmExtern_THIS_SHOULD_BE_AVOIDED)
