[MPlayer-users] Multiple slave modes not working

[houghi]

I have 4 monitors and I would like them all to show the same movie.
MPlayer dev-SVN-r35127-4.7-openSUSE Linux 12.2 (x86_64)-Packman (C) 2000-2012 MPlayer Team

I run NVidea Driver Version: 304.43 

I run the mplayer command via slave mode (and see that it starts on
DISPLAY=:0.2)
mplayer -slave -quiet -idle -fs -udp-master -input file=/tmp/mplayer.fifo

To start a movie I use (via a php script) 
echo loadfile /dir/movie.mkv 0 > /tmp/mplayer.fifo

To start on a second monitor I use:
DISPLAY=:0.3 mplayer -really-quiet -fs -nosound -udp-slave /dir/movie.mkv

So now I have 1 sound source and the movie running on two monitors. No
issues so far. However when I want to run it on a third monitor with e.g.
DISPLAY=:0.1 mplayer -really-quiet -fs -nosound -udp-slave /dir/movie.mkv

Running with -v instead of -really-quiet shows:
Audio: no sound
Freeing 0 unused audio chunks.
Starting playback...

I will get a black screen and then after a while it will start playing the
movie from the start. So it seems as if it isn't connecting to the udp
server a second time.

Is there anything I am doing wrong? Is there anything I can test? Or can I
only run one slave on a machine? Is there anything else I can do to test
or give information?
