The default "seek forwards/backwards" times in Mplayer are 10 seconds. I'd like to change these to 5 seconds. If I go to the .mplayer folder there is only one file, "config", which at the moment just contains the text "# Write your default config options here!". I've tried adding the following lines to change the above-mentioned settings: RIGHT seek +5 LEFT seek -5 (also tried it with putting [gnome-mplayer] before this) ...but when I do this and open a file it won't play and just says "stopped". Does anyone know how I can make this setting adjustment and get it to work?! Thanks |

Thanks, but the problem I have isn't that the "seek" times I enter are reproduced inaccurately, rather that when I enter any values at all into the config file, gnome-mplayer will no longer play anything, just go straight to "stopped". If I type "mplayer -input keylist" into a console, I get the message: Option RIGHT needs a parameter at line 3 Option LEFT needs a parameter at line 4 ...which seems to indicate some kind of syntax error, but I don't know why as I've entered the commands correctly as far as I can see. Unfortunately Googling that error message doesn't bring up anything that is of any help to me. |

Please post your /root/.mplayer/input.conf contents _________________ trapster Maine, USA Asus eeepc 1005HA PU1X-BK Frugal install:Puppeee4.31 + 1.0, Puppy4.10 + Lupu52 Currently using Puppeee-1.0 AND lupu52 w/ fluxbox |

Here's what I have: # Write your default config options here! RIGHT seek +5 LEFT seek -5 (although the file is just called "config", if I create another one called "input.conf" and delete this one it has no effect). |

Is the player starting and playing and just not skipping the +5 ? If so, try reducing the times to +1 or +2. _________________ trapster Maine, USA Asus eeepc 1005HA PU1X-BK Frugal install:Puppeee4.31 + 1.0, Puppy4.10 + Lupu52 Currently using Puppeee-1.0 AND lupu52 w/ fluxbox |

The player's starting but it won't play any files when I make the above changes to the config file, it just jumps straight to "stopped". The error message from the console tells me there's a missing parameter, but I have no idea what this is. |
