We did a GUI for mplayer to play webradio. Sadly it is not online yet and
the code needs a serious cleanup. See I don't want to send it to you
prematurely - also because Hans wrote the most part of it.

As a hint, look at mplayer's -slave switch. Then you can control it by
sending commands

Print #$hMPlayer, sCommand
