<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Hello, I just finished a custom LCD (2X16) + keypad interface to mplayer. It connects via ttyS0 to a module (frontend.c) who launches mplayer in slave mode and gets messages (tipically the status line and the starting messages) via pipes. It also gets keypad pressures & LIRC codes via another task and then send commands to mplayer via pipes, handle ejects of tray, shutdown etc.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">If someone is interested I can send electric diagram,hex code for the ST6 microprocessor, c module for interfacing (work in progess), pcb layout etc.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">One question: when I get the status line (A: 2.1 V: 2.2 A-V: -0.167 ct: 0.042 57 41% 0% 2.6% 0 4 49%) I notice that the video timings are always relative to the current chapter playing, and not to the beginning of movie.</FONT></P>
<P><U><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Is it possibile to fix it ? </FONT></U>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">In consumer DVD players when I start playing from chapter 5 the timing doesn't start from 00:00 but from the beginning of movie. This is not true for extra contents, however.</FONT></P>
