This is probably Unix issue, not an MPlayer issue. You should try
replacinghe 'mplayer' command with a 'cat' of the fifo to some
terminalnd see if your commands go to that terminal.
Twohings that look like they might need work; 1) -slave is
unnecessary; 2)player's Standard Input is the file ${PLAY_LIST}.
