Subject: Looking for examples using -idle

I have found references to -idle in man mplayer

"Mostly useful in slave mode where MPlayer can be con-
              trolled through input commands."

But there is no mention of -idle in slave.txt

http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/tech/slave.txt

I've tried to use -idle but I either get this error:

mplayer: could not connect to socket
mplayer: No such file or directory

OR mplayer doesn't appear to go into 'idle'.

After much searching I cannot locate a single example of how to
actually use the -idle switch.  Can anyone point me to even one?
Thank you very, very much.
