would it be possible to make xbmc invulnerable to mplayer chrashes?

here's my problem: i'm using xbmc.player.play from python. if i call it with an asx file, then xbmc freezes - forcing me to reboot the hard way. optimally an mplayer chrash would cause an exception. but if it just ignored the error and unloaded/loaded mplayer then that would also be a big improvement. or even if mplayer stopped functioning and i atleast could make a soft reboot from the xbmc gui, then that also would be much better.

i would second that Wink
but i think the devs would have the same idea of this, since it isnt working like this now, maby it's difficult to implement?
