Kaffeine worked well for me since KDE3 days until sometime around the release
of Trinity R14, when various parts became broken. Now it crashes immediately
when I try to play anything with either the gstreamer or xine engines. I'm
not sure which of the multimedia players are actually supported in Trinity;
there are nine others besides Kaffeine in the menu:
Amarok
Codeine
Kaboodle
KMPlayer
KPlayer
Noatune
VLC
TDEMid
JuK
I was very well used to Kaffein's controls; I find that VLC is more difficult
to operate. I have not tried many of the others, but I suppose I will have
to explore them.
IMO the last really good player for music was XMMS and XINE for video. Both have passed
away (XMMS2 is a PITA, VLC is working when stripped to bare minimum). But it seams
stretched to install a FreeBSD VM to use XMMS :)
Kaffeinw works on my system (devuan ceres), but you might need to tweak the order of audio
devices.
