[linux] Use mplayer as a repeator
14 Apr 2011 [linux mplayer python Sometimes we could encounter some large size media file, and we may want to split it into parts so that we can listen around, back and forth. Mplayer has an ‘-ss hh:mm:ss’ option by which we can start listening from any point we want, so I just write a script for people to use mplayer as a repeator more convinience, without really break the media file into parts. The script is just a wrapper, outside mplayer. The good thing is, we can use mplayer’s all function as we are using itself when we playing stuff, use this script.
Program: repeator.py Options: -h - displays this help message, expects no argument -p - displays default playlist, expects no argument –loop - sets loop to True, expects no argument –part - expects an number as argument –file - expects one argument which is the path to your audio file –playlist - explicitly specifies a playlist file, this option must use together with –file option –clist - creates a playlist file, expects list name as its argument
