Hi Guys I am using a shell script on Ubuntu which uses mplayer to play internet (streaming) radio stations. I attached the script in this email. I haven't yet tried it on the freerunner, but I should probably work. It has been written by french people, so the radio are french ones, but it can be

I've just found out that you can control mplayer via a fifo file. So to quit mplayer in a good way you could do the following: 1. Create a fifo somewhere: mkfifo mplayer_fifo 2. Start mplayer within your script like this: mplayer -quiet myradiostation -input file=mplayer_fifo 3. Write this
