You need to restart freevo.

video/videoitem.py is a better place, as this module calls the other players

In the rel-1 branch (see
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&group_id=46652&atid=446898&aid=1602956,
http://freevo.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/doc/Contributing and
http://freevo.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/doc/SVN_ChangeLogs) we have now,

commands set in the local_conf.py before and after playing a video file.
