I keep solving this problem from scratch every time I upgrade SlimServer
or get new hardware... slow learner, I guess.  But today I actually paid
a bit of attention to what I did.

In my case it wasn't the location of the file, but the permissions on
Bin/mplayer.sh Fresh out of the AlienBBC archive today it was set
rwxrwxr--.  I think the issue is that "other" could not execute the
script. Once unpacked into the slimserver directory, a simple 

chmod o+x mplayer.sh

as root should probably make it work.  

I'm running this on a gentoo system, so I also set all the SlimServer
file ownerships as follows: 

chown -R slim:slimserver slimserver

Not sure whether it's the permissions change or the ownership change
that actually fixes the problem (since I do both) but it's definitely
one of them.  

Hope this helps.  We were able to hear "I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue"
during dinner again.  (Is that a good thing?)
