Mplayer control panel through command line

[ericeclifford]

I type this command mplayer dvd://1 -dvd-device /dev/dvd1 -alang en to play my dvd, but I do not know how to make the control panel to go up as well, anyone know if its possible, i tried lots of different stuff and ran into problem after problem, anyone got this to work?

FYI Control panel is the pad that has the play/pause/stop/volume and stuff like that for the current dvd you are playing.

try gmplayer, which is the gui.

Also, people hate it when I say read the man page, but that's where you find the keybindings to run mplayer without the gui.

Read the man pages, could not find it.

So I can use the command gmplayer dvd://1 -dvd-device /dev/dvd1 -alang en and what is the command for the control panel, BTW I need to know how to do it all through command no gui.
