[MPlayer-users] specifying input fifo in ~/.mplayer/config?

[Wicher Minnaard]

Hi list,

I'm using a fifo to control mplayer, like this:
mplayer -input file=~/.mplayer/fifo /path/to/moviefile

Works like a charm. I expected to be able to specify this option in my
~/.mplayer/config like this:
input=file=/path/to/.mplayer/fifo

That doesn't work (the fifo is not read), but no related errors occur in
verbose output of mplayer.
