Well, I don't know what moview player is, perhaps "mplayer" is what
has been referred? BTW, "m" stands for media, if that is the case,
not movie, :-)
Now gnome-mplayer is not a player by its own. It's just a front end
to mplayer. And mplayer has different front ends, like KDE ones, GTK+
ones, etc.
To watch video I've been using mplayer for quiet a while, and I've
found no reason to change. Even when VLC came on board, I just kept
with mplayer with no regret. Regarding a front end, gnome-player is
what I use given it's the one installed for the gecko plugin, and
besides it works well.
For audio I'm afraid I prefer MPD with mpc, ncmpc, and gmpc as client
front ends, for most of the stuff (including listenning to streaming).
And for local audio listening I prefer just MOC. Alsaplayer
sometimes comes in handy as well...
I'm not sure if one alone media player fits all purposes, :-)
At any rate, there's bunch of information about media players on the web...
