Yes. You just send a ton commands in a row to mplayer. Everytime the osd
gets redrawn. But the flickering is an effect that we did not sort out yet.

That was my approach but it was badly implemented. What Adam did now is
better but not exactly working. I was meaning to find out why (at the
first glance it should work) but then this stupid distro of mine and

would have done it exactly this way. I take this as feature request...

This should be a matter of exchanging only the graphics like the action
buttons (play, pause etc) and the bar graphics imho.
