I want to use MPlayer to stream files off a network server using a lightweight
protocol.
-slave mode provides me some of the features I want. However, not quite.
I basically want mplayer to respond back to me upon receipt of keyboard/mouse
input from the user in addition to the -slave command protocol and video
stream.
eg. There are three active streams between the control program and mplayer.
1) -slave protocol (program to mplayer)
2) userinput protocol (mplayer to program)
3) video/audio stream.
stream 2 provides information back to my control program from mplayer.
For example when mplayer receives a forward arrow (to skip forward).
I would like MPlayer to tell my program via the stream "skip 5".
My control program then repositions the video/audio stream.
This gives me two advantages : 1) my program doesn't have to re-do all the
great input.conf/input work in player and 2) mplayer can still do OSD stuff.
Does this make sense?
Better yet, has anyone worked on this before I attempt to do it?
Thanks
