<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Look at the slave option. With it, you can do
almost anything you need (seek back/forward with different options, etc). I use
it with success :)</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Only thing I lack is a way to determine how
long the movie/music is. Otherwise, you just need a decent parser and
you're set.</FONT></DIV>

front-end</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>[Automatic answer: RTFM (read DOCS, FAQ), also read
DOCS/bugreports.html]<BR>Hello,<BR><BR>I'd like to write a front end (not for
user interaction, but for control by <BR>another program) to mplayer.<BR><BR>I
figure out that the easiest way to do this is through the text client
<BR>protocol, but it seems to lack commands for fast forwarding, positioning
at a <BR>specific location within the file, and the like. Is it that I've not
looked <BR>well and such functionality exists..or do I have to interface my
front end in <BR>C??<BR><BR>Thanks in advance for any explanation
