    Telescope now displays a window for mplayer when invoked whilst mplayer is playing video.

    when you switch back to mplayer though, all you see is a black screen with audio, and the only resolution appears to be quitting playback, and then relaunching from the mplayer GUI.

    Press twice the fullscreen button.
    It works for me (it always did).

    Updated in the first post.

    This update fixed one bug I've had: Not being able to get a thumbnail of FlipClock in Telescope - now that works great. Thanks!

    @Mitrandir:
    There is a problem (not new) with the osso mediaplayer, switching applications (either with telescope or with the taskbar) doesn't make the video overlay disappear, the only way to get rid of it is by minimizing the media player.

    Glad to see Dillo shows up with this latest version. Now I can ditch the original switcher completely.

    As i remember, when switching back to mplayer video had never been seen, even with switching with builtin task switcher. This is how xvideo works on diablo. I have always used twiice-fullscreen trick to get it back.

    silvermountain, thanks for keeping first post updated!

    FlipClock, Dillo, XMMS, links2... It's surprising to me that so many apps do not support NETWM specification

    maacruz, thanks for the bug. Will try to reproduce. Actually, i never used native mediaplayer, so this was still unnoticed to me. This is probably one another side effect of enabling Compositing

    I confirm that there is a bug with osso mediaplayer
    I have checked, the bug is caused by enabling Compositing in X Server. Right now i have no idea how to solve this

    I find a workaround for the mediaplayer issue is to switch to the library view (instead of "now playing"). then I can easily switch to other apps without the video overlay. It's not ideal, but it works.
