Please consider my post to mplayer-users list (sigh.. unfortunately,
bugreports are still read only if they are posted directly to
mplayer-dev list). I can't send the patch because I don't have this
code, maybe someone kept the original patch and can send it again so it
can be reversed?
Here is that message:

Subject: buggy "stuck mouse button" fix causes problems

I just compiled recent mplayer, and whoa.. someone applied buggy "stuck
mouse button" fix. It was discussed several times before; for example,
read this post
http://mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/mplayer-dev-eng/2004-April/025613.html

The patch that was applied recently has the same problem as the one
described there. Hey, it's said in patches.txt that patches shouldn't
cause new bugs to appear, no matter what cool functionality they bring
to mplayer... Please someone fix it or just roll it back.

PS if the testcase doesn't work for you, then line
"ENTER pt_step 1 1" in input.conf needs to be changed to
"ENTER pt_step 1". Actually, why not make it permanent? It's much more
comfortable when enter switches to the next file and does nothing
otherwise. All my friends find this behaviour better than default one
(mplayer exits just when you touch that big key).
