I worked on my patch. Now it only extents cplay of the possibility to use mplayer, but all players of the original version still work. So there is no _need_ of mplayer, it also works without. > - It would be more readable if you use unified diff format ("diff -u") > to show some lines of context. > - The code where you create the fifo makes it with a predictable > filename; also, it assumes that if it (or another file of the same name) > already exists, it may be deleted by the current cplay user.

The code for the fifo from my first patch was copied from the control-fifo of the original cplay-1.49. I fixed both in different ways according to the ideas of the fifo use. I also added equalizer support and tried fixing http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=375060. I sent my patch to Ulf, the author of cplay and will wait for his reactions. The cplay-dev mailinglist seems dead, but I will announce it there, too. Thanks for further comments, see http://www.argafal.de/cgi-bin/index.pl?page=projcplay for the latest version.
