The DNS problem stops the static mplayer playing
playlist files (unless the address of the playlist
file and all the addresses inside the playlist file
are dotted-quads). The best way to solve the problem
is to use a glibc2 mplayer.  Another way to solve
the problem is to use a wrapper script to decode
the playlist file before passing the address to
mplayer.  I have written a wrapper script to handle
playlist files but it is not perfect (because there 
is no consistent format for playlist files).

Cheers,
Steven
