Thanks,

that worked.

I have to redirect out > and < input to /dev/null

but there still is a Problem:
I got two errors, even if it is forked into bachground:
could not connect to socket
mplayer: No such file or directory
Failed to open LIRC support.

Any Ideas?

BTW
Which groups does a user under xubuntu (ubuntu) need to use all
functions of the mplayer?
