Weird, it's working fine for me here with the same setup. Looks like an article about the XO machine. Make sure you're entering it all on one line, leave out the -playlist option and any line wrapping symbols your mail client may be inserting. Easiest way to do it I find it to enter the: mplayer ' then copy/paste the URL and enter the final: ' If it's not that, I'm not sure what's up with it. -Gav -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
