-mplayer -unique help- just displays the normal usage options Dropping the -unique USB option from the command line does not change anything, it still plays fine! -mplayer -ao help:- MPlayer2 62ebca1 (C) 2000-2012 MPlayer Team Available audio output drivers: alsa ALSA-0.9.x-1.x audio output oss OSS/ioctl audio output pulse PulseAudio audio output null Null audio output pcm RAW PCM/WAVE file writer audio output Tried this (-ao pulse instead of -ao alsa) : ./mplayer -gapless-audio -ao pulse "/volume1/music/Santana/Shaman/1 - Adouma.flac" -v It did not output audio.

But I found this, dont know if it helps: https://linux.die.net/man/1/mplayer I found the config file /root/.mplayer/config, but it was empty. Nothing else on the config side. But this command line will output audio: ./mplayer -gapless-audio -ao alsa "/volume1/music/Santana/Shaman/1 - Adouma.flac" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thorden's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=66927 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97766
