A short configuration file would simply look like this, vo=xv,x11 ao=esd You can look at the system wide configuration file in /etc/mplayer/mplayer.conf to get a clue for more options. I'm not sure if you're used to these kinds of configurations files, but the # in the beginning of files is a comment, so those options are commented out and won't be used. Most of the stuff in the configuration file isn't necessary but can be useful. For example, the below two lines I use to set the default languages when playing DVD movies. This will first try english then swedish for subtitles and trying japanese, english and last swedish for audio. slang= en,sv alang= ja,en,sv -- Cheers, Sven Arvidsson http://www.whiz.se PGP Key ID 760BDD22
