Hi,
this bug should fix the problem that makes mplayer crash when playing
playlists with the fbdev driver.
Apparently the problem is that after playing the first file for some
reason both tty and fbdev file descriptor are closed and therefore when
mplayer tries to play the second one does not find anywhere to send the
images to. It would be probably nicer to convince mplayer not to close
those but I have not enough time and experience to do it.
I'm sending you the same patch I sent to the mplayer-users list since I
noticed that there has been no modification to vo_fbdev.c since the last
stable edition.
BTW, in case you may find it useful, I noticed that if you redirect both
STDIN and STDOUT to somewhere else, like /dev/null, then the positioning
problems disappear.
Please forward to my email address any comment since I am not subscribed
to this list.
Thanks a lot for this great player,
Roberto
