Re: MPV (mplayer fork) on Sailfish: no success :(

hey, I don't need mplayer to play videos.

I need just a console version to play music and radio streams.

Can you share the compiled version? Or compile it without video support at all?

And add to openrepos.

I believe can do that, I used to compile mplayer in the past often. But I have a lot of work these couple of days, and no Jolla sdk environment, and would appreciate if some one would do that.

Re: MPV (mplayer fork) on Sailfish: no success :(

i have managed to compile mpv and it plays back videos!

via this hack:

audio doesn't work yet though (probably need libaudioresource), and video needs to be rotated

I mean.... your username is only that, right?

video (size meh) and audio (need to figure out where to put the code...) work

EDIT: ... silly me ... you can use the --fs (fullscreen) option to have the video appropriately sized :)

Re: MPV (mplayer fork) on Sailfish: no success :(

great news! :)
could you provide the rpm for testing purpose? :D
Many thanks :)

Re: MPV (mplayer fork) on Sailfish: no success :(

hey! any update on that package?

Re: MPV (mplayer fork) on Sailfish: no success :(

heres a (crappy, work-in-progress) cmdline audio-file player that i use as the backend to my music thingie (klomp). it requires pyqt which is installable using zypper if you ignore the error about breaking it.

unfortunately, there is a bug in QT that makes the QMediaPlayer fail on vbr MP3s, so i had to write an extremely lowlevel player using QAudioDecoder for mp3.

also no keyboard control yet, just a few cmdline args

https://github.com/teleshoes/klomp/b...rc/qtcmdplayer

Code:

usage: qtcmdplayer [-h] [--loop] [--volume VOLUME] [--mp3] [--nomp3]

                   FILE [POSITION_MILLIS] [COMMAND_FIFO]



Play music/sound files from the command line using PyQt5 media tools.



positional arguments:

  FILE                  sound file to play

  POSITION_MILLIS       optional starting position in millis

  COMMAND_FIFO          optional path to existing FIFO for listening to

                        commands



optional arguments:

  -h, --help            show this help message and exit

  --loop, -loop         when playback is finished, play again immediately

                        forever

  --volume VOLUME, -volume VOLUME

                        set volume 0 - 100(values greater than 100 are allowed

                        only for MP3s, or with --mp3)

  --mp3                 force MP3 mode regardless of file extension (use

                        QAudioDecoder+QAudioOutput instead of QMediaPlayer)

  --nomp3               force non-MP3 mode regardless of file extension (use

                        QMediaPlayer instead of QAudioDecoder+QAudioOutput)
