The whole device parsing code could do with a rewrite, to be honest - it's messy in there :) Part of the problem is that : and , are already given meaning by mplayer - there needs to be a way of escaping them (maybe using '' or ""). > 2) to use mplayer with the dmix plugin? (I couldn't even get it to run > plug:dmix by defining a ":"-less name in asoundrc) I've never had any luck with dmix with anything except aplay. Everything else complains about setting periods failing. aoss *sometimes* works, but sometimes locks up my machine (this is with 0.9.7b, aoss 0.9.6).

I don't know - plughw works here, but it slows video down to about 5fps :( - Myk
