Truly weird, because over here, it doesn't even look for bla if I put in
"input=file=bla". I don't get the error you are getting. But as I mentioned
in the original email, it's parsing all right in so far as that it throws an
error if the syntax is wrong, such as when I put in "input=file:bla".

If I strace mplayer there's no sign at all it's statting bla. Unless I add
"-input file=blargh" on the command line, of course, as then I get the same
error as you do.

My mplayer (r30554) was configured with
