Hello everyone!
After I've lost all my datas (sad...) on G5 hard disk I've installed MorphOS again and then MPlayer.
I was playing some video files when suddenly.....

O_o

I went to Fab's website to download it again and I discovered its web pages are not reachable anymore!!
Virus?
Aliens??
Silent War???

Is this strange thing happened to anyone else?

This is what it means according to Google Translate:

"sout blessed the maker and som name."

Suspicoius.

Other strange messages:

Message: Le dormeur doit se réveiller. The sleeper must awaken.
Message: Uzul parle moi de ton monde natal. Uzul tell me about your homeworld.


Weird too....
I guess Annunaki are inside my G5... Who Am I gonna call?!?
Seriously, this seems to be a sort of virus inside MPlayer. Messages appeared only using this program.

> Is this strange thing happened to anyone else?

I also recall such strange messages from MPlayer occuring now and then. I haven't given it much thought, though.

So do I but those messages are a little annoying since they open a fullscreen window output which hides MPlayer.

Seems the programmer likes the movie "DUNE"..... :)

Unfortunate then. I use MPlayer from command line so have barely noticed.

Now I remember!! DUNE! Yes, thanks for the suggestion Andreas.
1984.... 2014..... 30 years ago.... Maybe a coincidence?!? :)

It wasn't me, even though I successfully googled the quotes earlier today but missed to report my findings here :-)

I'm sure I saw the MPlayer messages before 2014 already.

Relevant source code here (authors are Nicolas Det and Fab):

So it has been in MPlayer since 2005 at the latest, which makes Nicolas Det the sought-after Dune fan :-)

Easter eggs?

Yes, the messages are inside source code :)
But I've never seen before yesterday. Well, maybe it's a sort of easter eggs as Tcheko wrote.
Or it's only a Nicolas Det's genuine Dune passion =)
