Flnotify - Is it Possibe to Mimic Daemon Notifiers?

[SamK]

For a while I have been using XMMS to output track information to flnotify.  This is easily achieved as XMMS provides a configuration option to trigger a specific command at a track change event.

What I would like to do is to output track information from gnome-mplayer to flnotify.  This is not as easy to achieve as with XMMS, as it looks to output to a notification daemon.  I was hoping to find some suggestions of how to intercept and redirect the information.  Is there an app in the repo that can do this?

The reason to try to do it this way is to reduce CPU demand.  XMMS is inherently a superb lightweight app, but in side-by-side trials, gnome-mplayer reduces demand for CPU by approximately 40-50%.  In modern high spec kit this difference will probably not be apparent but in older lower spec equipment it is a big difference and is quite noticeable.
