Dear all,

 

I am a beginner of programming, but I need to use a 
program to control a mplayer.

I want mplayer plays movies, and when some event is coming, 
 it is required to play MP3. ( movies have to keep playing).

 

My question is,

1. After I use popen("mplayer -slave filename","w") to start mplayer . 
How can I send a command to mplayer

(I don't know how to let my program send command into mplayer as its 
stdin)

 

2. When I try to play MP3 and Movie together, the system shows 
" Device is busy and unavaiable". (even I make movie to be mute)

Is there any possibility I can play the sound of movie and MP3 
together?

 

Thanks,
