There is a small problem however...

by default - the mplayer caches about %13 of the video (or so it seems) and 
then it plays the video & continues to stream - so far, so good...

However - when the cache pools has dropped to %0 - both the video play and 
the caching system are running without "waiting" for each other...

I think it would be a good idea that if the cache has become %0 - to "freeze" 
playback and let it fill back to the %13, and then continue the playback - 
thats how Windows Media player & Real player do the job...

Just a thought...
