What works is the spacebar to pause. The message I get when I do a up or
down arrow is 'Cannot seek in this file'. When I do a 
`echo pause > /tmp/mp/mp1` (or any of the other fifo files) is that it
closes all the mplayer windows.

When I do this on some other fifo I already use, it pauses nicely.

You are standing at the end of a road before a small brick building.
Around you is a forest.  A small stream flows out of the building and
down a gully.
