<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>i'm trying to call mplayer from a shell script
which runs in the background. Mplayer starts but waits until its turned into
foreground (fg) - otherwise it will not play :-(</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Is there a way to make mplayer work in the
background ? I don't need it's output on the console and i control it via lirc -
so i don't want it in the foreground :-)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Anyone ?</FONT></DIV>
