Hy again, I need a little more help with a more linux shell based problem, please. I've tried the wrapper below, but the problem is, that the 'exec' Statement parses [EMAIL PROTECTED] So when freevo launches the wrapper (called mymplayer in this case) with:
/usr/local/bin/mymplayer //path/to/some\ folder/file.avi mymplayer actually launches: /usr/local/bin/mplayer /path/to some/file.avi whith exists of course with the error telling me that the file '/path/to' is not found. So, either freevo has to double-qoute the spaces or 'exec' or bash needs to keep the slashes....
