Pycage,

I have a problem with the "This week in photography" podcast. It is encoded in eAAC so that the album art can be changed during playback to show photographs and the like. The issue is that mplayer doesn't like the pseudo video stream and stops playing after less than a second. There is a simple fix which is to start mplayer with the -novideo option.

I have found that it is possible to add this option to MediaBox without causing any other problems.

At line 264 of AudioWidget.py add after the line:

Code:
self.__player = mediaplayer.get_player_for_mimetype(item.mimetype)
Add the line

Code:
self.__player.set_options("-novideo")
Would you consider merging this into the trunk?
