How can I display a jpg image with mplayer for an infinite amount of time?

Wen opening an image with mplayer, the image is displayed for about 0.1s and then mplayer is leaving:

mplayer image.png

PS: the ultimate goal is to send a picture to /dev/fb0 which can be done with the mplayer option -fbdev2 /dev/fb0

mplayer -nosound "mf://image.jpg" -mf type=jpg -loop 0
or
mplayer -nosound "mf://image.png" -mf type=png -loop 0

These commands "play" an image repeatedly until mplayer is stopped, say, by hitting escape.
