Hi list, I'm using a fifo to control mplayer, like this: mplayer -input file=~/.mplayer/fifo /path/to/moviefile Works like a charm. I expected to be able to specify this option in my ~/.mplayer/config like this: input=file=/path/to/.mplayer/fifo That doesn't work (the fifo is not read), but no related errors occur in verbose output of mplayer.
