The Dragon Player is a simple playback program for audio and video data from the KDE software Compilation 4 (SC 4), which is based on the Phonon multimedia interface and the Solid hardware interface .

It aims at ease of use and simplicity. It therefore has a clearly structured user interface and intelligent functions. It saves settings such as the playback position for each video file that is played. As a KPart , its functionality can be integrated into other KDE programs such as Konqueror .

history

Dragon Player is the continuation of the KDE 3 program Codeine , which was originally published by Max Howell in 2005 - at that time still with xine backend .

Ian Monroe adopted the program and put it on Phonon and Solid to integrate it into SC 4 as the official video playback application. Since December 2007 he has been releasing new versions, which now have the version numbers 2.x and the new name Dragon Player , which he has chosen in honor of the KDE mascot Konqi . In the SC-4 version of Kubuntu 8.04 from April 2008, it was the first official part of a large Linux distribution .
