Hi,
I'm experimenting launching mplayer from within a web browser to play
different types of web content. The problem is that for playlist files
(.asx, .ram etc) I have to add the "-playlist" parameter but for
actual media files (.wmv, .ra) the "-playlist" parameter should not be
used. So what do I for configuring the browser? I could create a batch
file or shell file that the browser launches for playlist extensions:
> cat mplayerplaylist
mplayer -playlist $1
>
but this doesnt feel very satisfactory. Why doesnt mplayer just
recognise known file extensions as play list files ?
My suggestion is to have a config file option for specifying the list
of known playlist file extensions:
> cat config
fs=yes
playlist-extensions=ram,asx
>
Is this a reasonable idea? how do I go about officially requesting this change?
thanks
