What is happening is that when -cache is active then mplayer reads the cache and thinks that the end of the cache is the end of the file and stops playback. So the solution is to have a small cache or no cache for this type of file. Something like: MPLAYER_ARGS['tv'] = '-nocache' Duncan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Freevo-users mailing list Freevo-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freevo-users
