=head1 NAME

rmcd - Remotely control a daemonized Mplayer process

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  rmcd [OPTION]... [FILE/URI]

=head1 DESCRIPTION

B<rmcd> is a mplayer daemon/client - it daemonizes itself, playing
music/movies/radio stations and waiting for input through the named pipe.

You can send commands, load and play new content whenever you like.

You can run rmcd on one computer and remotely control it on another, fully
transparent. It only cares for the presence of the named pipe.

You can also setup mplayer to stream the content to you, creating a solution
similar to MPD and their builti-in httpd streaming (except MPD does not support
video streaming).

rmcd features a built-in, user configurable, web radio management system,
functionality for copying the current track to your portable mp3 player or
wherever you prefer, favorizing of tracks and loading of the same, now playing
information for both local files and streams, along with other nifty stuff.
