[MPlayer-users] sub_load problem in slave mode

[Samuel Félix]

First of all, thank you =D

>mplayer may not be able to do shell expansion internally.  try specifing
>the filename as /home/YOU/mysubtitle.srt

Ok, I was doing that... but in this message, I've changed the whole path
(/home/user/videos/subtitles/ ... ) to ~/mysubtitle.srt because it was long
=D
But I've specified the whole path to mplayer...
Anyway... Do u know how can I open it during the mplayer execution?
I'd not like to re-open it every time I have to change the subtitle... is
that possible?
The sub_load command is supposed to do that? or... there is any other
command for that?

I was reading this doc (http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/tech/slave.txt) and I
just found the sub_load command to do it
thx
