Description

Hi

If command-line mplayer output is piped to anotehr program, and that other program exits, mplayer exits with a message that it has crashed, but maybe it just give a nice message about a broken pipe so people dont think they have found an actual crash.

eg:

mplayer foo.avi | sleep 1

(assuming foo.avi is greater than 1 second long!)

Would make patch but would need advice about the help headers (I dont speak all those languages!)
