[MPlayer-users] Ping-Pong playback.

Hey all,

I'm working on an interactive video, but the playback of my HDV video is
not working very well in Pure-Data/GEM, so I'm looking at using mplayer
in slave mode.

I have converted my raw HDV footage into a MPG with no interframe
compression. This is to do frame by frame seeking.

I just need a few operations to make the project work:

1. play ping-pong (loop between two edit points playing forward and then
backward)

2. Change edit points

3. play backwards.

Seems all this can be done if I could play backwards, which does not
seem possible in mplayer.

Since my file has no interframe compression playing backwards is just
the same as playing forwards, but indeed this file is a special case.

Is anyone working on backwards playback, perhaps a new feature in svn?

Thanks,
B. Bogart
