sorry this simply doesn't work. tried it and it's less reliable. if i
seek forward / backward, it count frames, but if i wanna stop after 12
seconds it's wrong to play a certain amount of frames, i should indeed
stop after 12s, which my code does. the problem is still with -ss
option enabled.
-ss option doesn't work reliably, i think i'll put my hands on this
after my patches'll be applied, i can't take care of too much code
simultaneously-or-how-ever-it's-written....


thanx, Paul

PS includes changes to man mplayer :-)
