How Smplayer gets status of running video from Mplayer?
Posted: Mon Dec 02, 2013 1:49 pm
Hi everyone,
I am trying implement a webinterface for a commandline only player (Omxplayer for Raspberry pi). For this i need to share the current status of video plying of Omxplayer like Seek, Volume level, subtitles enable\disable status, Mute, pause etc. But i dont know how i can capture this information for sharing with mobile client. Same kind of implementation is done in Smplayer (which is a front-end for Mplayer, a CLI only player) so i downloaded the smplayer0.8.6 code and started looking into it but i could not find how this information if given to the frontend of the smplayer from mplayer backgroung process. Can anyone tell me how this is implemented in smplayer and where to look exactly in the smplayer0.8.6 code.
Thanks,
