This has something todo with Viggo's animation stuff.

I've tried by reverting osd.py, main.py and skins/main/screen.py back to
the version before Viggo's animation stuff was added and then it works.

I've done a strace on the mplayer, and it stops on:
write(1, "A:         4.4  0.6% 88%   \r", 28

This is also what is shown in the mplayer-logs.

I suspect that for some reason, Freevo has stopped reading stdout from
mplayer and the stdout-buffer get's full or something.

I noticed that Viggo changed time.sleep to osd.sleep in main.py, maybe
something similiar needs to be done in childapp.py aswell.

Xine works, but the the Elapsed time: is not incremented. The
reason Xine works is probably because it's less "noisy" on stdout
so the buffer doesn't get full that quickly.

Yes

Yes, AFAIK, I have not been able to get mplayervis to show something
(Using Matrox DH400 with matroxfb, no directfb)

Nothing funny here..
