[MPlayer-users] OSD menu: restrict open_file to a specific directory

[Alexander Heinz]

> -menu-chroot <path>
> Chroot the file selection menu to a specific location.

> EXAMPLE:
> "-menu-chroot=/home"
> Will restrict the file selection menu to /home and downward (i.e.& no
> access to / will be possible, but /home/user_name will).

This command line argument does not work for me with latest SVN:

debian:/usr/src/mplayer-checkout-2007-11-20# ./mplayer 
-menu-chroot=/media /media/usb/movie.avi

Does it work for you?
