I did a search on this issue and found two posts the first actually pointed to the second which is this thread:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=26511
In the first post it mentions the following:
In my .jwmrc for the mplayer I have the following:UPDATE FOR PUPPY 4.0:
- MPlayer will freeze when launched from the JWM menu. To fix this, open /root/.jwmrc in geany and add a space and "&" to the end of the gmplayer launch command, so it looks like this
Code:
<Program label="MPlayer" icon="mplayer.xpm">gmplayer -msglevel all=-1 %U &</Program>
The "&" is not necessary if you create a desktop icon for MPlayer, because this is controlled by ROX, not JWM.
Be it that my line is different I tried the space and & on the end but my mplayer still hangs everything up.<Program label="MPlayer media player" icon="mplayer.xpm">exec mplayershell</Program>
Any ideas on what to do here?
