[MPlayer-users] change_rectangle in slave mode doesn't do anything

[Steve Ricketts]

I'm sure popen is only called once, trace shows on one request.

Ah, now that's the real problem.  That was my whole intent
 was to change the
size and position of the video.  If not change_rectangle,
 how do I change the
size and location of the video while it's playing?  This 
is part of a distance
learning program and I need to expose various parts of 
the program behind the video.

BTW, Thanks so much for the help!
