mpv support?

[Starks]

Any plans to support mpv, a new project by the mplayer2 devs?

https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/ ... README.rst

Small bump....^^
Nah, seriously, are there anyplans to maybe support it?
Someone told me about it a few days ago and i wanted to try it out....but without a decent gui it is a pain in the ass.

mpv removed the slave mode. They say they want to implement something better, but meanwhile without the slave mode it's almost impossible to add support for it.

Unlike mplayer2, mpv is actively developed and, if I recall correctly, they asked front end developers for cooperation in designing new slave mode. I guess, they would be glad to hear your opinion about how it should look like.

I suppose MPV is still not offering any kind of slave mode?

They use new location for config files and new name for the binary

I built mpv from the git repository this morning on Kubuntu 13.10 (Saucy). It works cleanly from the command prompt but fails under smplayer with "Error parsing commandline option noquiet: option not found". I cannot seem to find an easy solution to editing the list of commands smplayer sends to the engine. I can add items from the Preferences menu, but I don't see a way to suppress specific smplayer switches. I looked a bit in ~./config/smplayer/smplayer.ini without much luck. Is there a simple way to control what gets passed to the backend?

[rvm]

They removed or renamed many options in mpv. You'd have to change the sources of smplayer (mainly core.cpp). But after that it still won't work because of the changes in the slave mode.

Because of so many changes I think supporting mplayer, mplayer2 and mpv in smplayer at the same time will be almost impossible.

Thanks! I find mplayer2 does all I really need anyway.
