Hi mplayer people,

I have found that when streaming radio stations with mplayer, they are a lot 
more likely to recover from lost streams or changes to the next song/program if 
the "-loop 0" option is supplied. Unfortunately this is not explained in the 
man page (I only found out from looking at a lot of obscure internet sites). 

Currently the man page says:

-loop <number>
              Loops movie playback <number> times.  0 means forever.

Could it be changed to something like:

-loop <number>
              Loops movie playback <number> times.  0 means forever, and should 
be used to keep (for example) streaming radio connected.

I don't have a git repository of mplayer, otherwise I would send a diff.

Cheers,
Brett.
