Side note: Thank you for giving me an excellent idea of something to do with this retired PC.

Edit: In regards to your reply above, what user owns the instance of MPlayer that your script starts up?

    Works very nicely. One suggestion, make sure the audio is working properly before putting the machine in the closet. I spent a week thinking I was hunting down a connection problem between the PC and the sound system, when the problem was an upgrade I had made to the PC which broke the audio. It is a whole lot easier to debug on the workbench than up on a ladder.
