Subject: Re: [gentoo-user] How to use mplayer play file online?

I have found a way. Just add USE=ftp when emerge mplayer.
Then, we can play movie in ftp use mplayer:

mplayer ftp://FTP_SERVER/FILE

But I still want to find a "pipe" way like what you show above.
I have a simple program, which can fetch a file in a remote
machine(this machine also run my protocol).
If mplayer can play in a pipe way, then I can player media like this:
MY_PROGRAM --fetch --MY_SERVER -O - | mplayer -
