I'm now using mplayer as a player in MythVideo, but I have some problems.
During playback, mplayer does not respond to my keyboard. However,
when the playback is finished I can see that the key-events got
handled by Myth instead. Even though Myth was in the background!

Anyone knows what is happening?

Also, the lirc bindings to mplayer doesn't work, but that may be a
different story...

Cheers,

I think this happens when you don't have a windowmanager.

Yes, that sounds like a window focus issue.  There are many window
manager discussions in the archive.

The lirc problem might have to do with the location of your lircrc
file.  Some programs look in the home directory for a .lircrc and myth
needs it in .mythtv/lircrc.  I keep a copy in both locations for this
reason.  Or there may be an mplayer flag to specify a location, I
don't remember offhand.

Hey, you were right about the lirc config file! That works great now!

I'll take a look at the window manager posts in the archive.

The way my box starts up now is by some script in GDMs PreSession part that starts mythfrontend. (Before sessreg...)

Maybe that is not good enough...

Cheers,
Magnus
