From the jargon file:

Bug:

" An unwanted and unintended property of a program or piece of hardware,
esp. one that causes it to malfunction."

From the home page:

MPlayer-users: general support mailing list for questions related to
MPlayer and bug reports

edl not working with multiple -edl flags passed to it, is a missing
implementation, not a bug. I may had taked the time to explain this,
maybe in other ml, this isnt the place to report problems this is the
place to discuss solutions. The only BUG I see here is the missed warning
on the manpage.

Best regards.
