I know, the thread says "mpg123" but my question runs more along the lines of freeamp. I played around with freeamp the other day and it seemed pretty responsive to me. I do wonder though, how to take advantage of the "my music" and playlist support? By shere experimentation, I discovered the -load option so I could load a premaid playlist (.m3u) into freeamp but the command line interface seems limitted to me. All the documentation I could find on freeamp relates to everything in a windows point-of-view. Do any of you use freeamp in these advanced areas?
