I think the restarting is to do with the socketwrapper code. This
listens for output from mplayer and sends it the slim code, if output
stops the code restarts mplayer. This is required on Windows to
overcome problems with piping data. The source of this is available in
SVN if you want to take a look. This code was changed specifically from
AlienBBC, it may be that there is something odd going on. You can get
debug info from this by changing slimserver-convert.conf, replace
#PIPE# with #DEBUGPIPE#.

Mplayer download: would it be a good idea to remove the 'mplayer with
kill code' from the downloads page?
