Introduction

Pymp is a simple Gtk+ interface for MPlayer. It supports any media type MPlayer does, and has basic media player features like:

• Opening files on the command line: pymp *.mp3
• Open files or locations, i.e.: pymp http://x.com/foo.avi dvd://1
• Drag and drop files or folders to playlist
• Remote commands (scripting):

pymp -remote pause
pymp -remote stop
pymp -remote play 12
pymp -remote status
pymp -remote seek 20

• Simple playlist format:

find ~/ -name "*.mp3" > playlist.m3u

• Auto save/restore last playlist
• Continuous, random, and repeat play
• Interactive progress bar
• Find file in list: <ctrl+f>
• Really freakin' tiny
