Alright, so I want to play videos in ASCII! I need to compile Mplayer with libcaca(color) and aalib(black &white) so I'll add libcaca and aalib to my USE="" since I use gentoo. Now I'll "sudo emerge -av mplayer" and say "Yes". Okay now Mplayer is ready for me to enjoy movies in ASCII!!! Let me tell Mplayer "mplayer -vo caca videos/movies/Pulp.Fiction.avi" WOO HOO it worked in color now let me try black & white "mplayer -vo aa videos/movies/PulpFiction.avi" YES that worked too now let me try it in a terminal (ctrl+alt+F1) "mplayer -vo caca videos/movies/Pulp.Fiction.avi" HUMMM Mplayer is generation some numbers at the same time let me try this "mplayer -quiet -vo caca videos/movies/Pulp.Fiction.avi" Good it works! All I need to try now is if it works over ssh and if it will work on Windows PUTTY (for ssh).
******UPDATE******
Yes mplayer does work over SSH and PUTTY.
Off to bed...
