[MPlayer-users] argument -playlist and -really-quiet conflict

[Yan Morin]

Hi,
is there a reason why mplayer can't use -really-quiet and -playlist at 
the same time?

I've tried to use mozplugger 1.7.1 (from FC4) and mplayer 
1.0.0.16.pre7.2.fc4 (from Freshrpms.net)
to play these files:

http://ms1.bandeapart.fm/bap/albums/1677/11149_l_03-DrumContest.asf
or this file
http://ms1.bandeapart.fm/bap/albums/1209/9005_h_07-LhiverApproche.asf

Right now, /etc/mozplugger use -really-quiet and I need to use -playlist to play ".asf" file.

I've seen this error with this command:
mplayer -really-quiet -nojoystick -nofs -zoom -vo xv,x11 -ao esd,alsa,oss,arts,null -osdlevel 0 -playlist http://ms1.bandeapart.fm/bap/albums/1209/9005_h_07-LhiverApproche.asf


I've patch mozplugger with this (removing the -really-quiet argument)
define(MP_AUDIO_STREAM_PLAYLIST,[controls stream noisy ignore_errors: mplayer -nojoystick -playlist "$file" </dev/null])

video/x-ms-asf: asf,asx,wma,wax,wmv,wvx: Windows Media Playlist
        MP_AUDIO_STREAM_PLAYLIST()

But if I could use -playlist and -really-quiet, I could create a MP_VIDEO_STREAM_PLAYLIST() or something like that.

I think the best way to deal with asf files is to auto-detect if the asf file is a playlist (without -playlist), but it's maybe more complicated to fix.
