[MPlayer-users] Unable to use colon in option value

[Pavel Stánek]

If I use colon in option value, I get error in parsing arguments.
I use jpeg output with option "outdir", value of a "outdir" option is "c:\tmp", but mplayer parse value as another option "\".

Repro (OS: windows):
mplayer.exe -ss 900 -frames 1 -vo jpeg:outdir=c:\tmp -vf scale=320:200 -nosound a.avi
