It seems that mplayer can simply play streams from the console and cannot display info in the stream (songs playing, etc.)

Just in case I'm wrong, I forgot to mention that I am using a laptop with a display of 800 X 600.

I'm using Linux 2.4.26 and I compiled MPlayer from it's source.  Do I need to recompile it in order to get it to display song names from the console?  If so, how exactly should I recompile it?  

I thought it may be helpful if add some more info using the -v option on a shoutcast stream.  This stream displays song titles using xine:

bash-2.05b$ mplayer -v -playlist shoutcast-playlist.pls
