I'm trying to open mplayer to play video without any terminal output using this:



mplayer -msglevel all=-1 /path/to/video


also:



mplayer -really-quiet /path/to/video


but it doesn't make it completely silent! and these are printed to output:



[flv @ 0x9a5d100]Estimating duration from bitrate, this may be inaccurate
[ass] Init
[ass] Updating font cache


How can I make mplayer completely silent?



Thanks
