How could I check this? The pid seems to increase each time I give the
ls command, e.g.. Btw, the five mplayer processes are spawned form one
attempt to play a .ra URL.:

# ps ax | grep mplay

RTSP -> MP3 is what used to work and is what I'm trying to use now as
well.
I've tried RTSP-> WAV but that doesn't produce any sound at all.

After some googling it seems to be a LAME error related to downsampling
at least. However I haven't limited the bitrate. This error message
appears only after I stop or select another track or stream, i.e. it
doesn't appear while it's playing noise. This make me suspect that it
is not related to the problem of playing noise.

How could I change the -x parameter? CPU info:
# uname -p
Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1400MHz
