15 The bug report got some updates, it's not Dolphin's or KDE's fault, but
16 mplayer2's, happens whenever it is started from a file manager. Something
17 with terminal keyboard controls enabled by the file manager, but with
18 stdin not being connected to anything readable.

20 It's fixed upstream: http://devel.mplayer2.org/ticket/146
21 Meanwhile, option -noconsolecontrols also helps.
