Hi Johan. Sorry to post more than one message on the same subject. But just
to clarify, I figured that I could have the X libs and stuff installed with
the video codec, then start the movie playing from the console and mplayer
could just access the video codec? So in other words, to start the movie
playing with audio and video without sighted assistance? Because then I
would have to try to help them through X, and naturally I have no clue what
the layout of the screen is! Smile.
