s at tcp/ip at unix sockets@ and it makes sense. Otherwise its nonsense,
anyone can connect and control your mplayer (unless someone adds a
bloated access control layer, and even then anyone on localhost could
screw with it). Of course even better is just controlling thru pipes,
or just sticking with the current method.
