Thxs. Fixed. Also note that now loop option is a little tricky. If the option apply to a file
(-loop n is after a filename) mplayer will loop "inside" the file (it seek to the begining
when it reach the end). But if the option apply to a group (before the first filename of
a group) the playlist will loop.
Some exemples : 
	mplayer 1.avi -loop 0
will play 1.avi forever

	mplayer -loop 0 1.avi 2.avi 3.avi
will play 1.avi 2.avi 3.avi 1.avi 2.avi 3.avi .....

	mplayer -loop 0 1.avi { -loop 2 2.avi 3.avi }
will play 1.avi 2.avi 3.avi 2.avi 3.avi 1.avi 2.avi 3.avi 2.avi 3.avi .....

	Albeu
