[MPlayer-dev-eng] [PATCH] slave mode absolute seek

[Sidik Isani]

Hello -

  I have an application using "mplayer -slave" (very convenient -- it
  works great!)  In my case, the master knows where it wants mplayer
  to seek to, but it does not know the total length of the clip to
  calculate a percentage seek (type=1).  This tiny patch adds "type=2"
  absolute seconds seek capability.  Update for man page is included.

  My mailer seems to force the attachment to be just "text/plain".
  Please let me know if I need to resubmit it as base64 or if it doesn't
  apply cleanly to the current CVS.  It should.  Thank you very much
  for MPlayer!

Be seeing you,

- Sidik
