[MPlayer-users] mplayer cgi

It does look relatively simple but I don't do C.  It also looks like
it might be hardcoded to use mpg123 -- i.e., it knows its options and
behaviour.

You could write a wrapper that will kick off mplayer in a few lines of
Perl if it has to be web-based.  Or you can do what I do and use a
file browser type application (e.g. Konqueror) which is bound to the
supported file types to kick off the appropriate command-line.  I plan
to do this with my Ipaq when it arrives tomorrow.
