I've been using mplayer for a long time with several distros, and I like it.
hi there, i've got this alias i want assign only sometimes, and then work in the same shell with it (so when closing the shell the alias dissapears). As the alias is long, i want it to be in a executable file, so i just execute the script from a terminal and then i can access the alias from that same terminal.
I just installed smplayer and it's not working! I don't seem to recognise the reason, but it might be something in the lines of 'unrecognised mplayer version' or something. Although, mplayer works. from terminal i'm able to run mplayer and watch movies.
Mplayer currently doesn't seem to handle the growing files. They are usually used when you stream something from the web (e.g. youtube-dl). Now when mplayer reaches the offset which was the size at the open time it just quits with various errors. Here's a simple way to reproduce.
I do not write English but can understand, this text was translated by google.
I have a card Tecnhotrend s-3200, which works with kaffeine and vdr however I can not make it start with mplayer. I have this error.
linux-29d2:~ # mplayer dvb://
The -gui option will only work as the first command line argument.
Hi,all ! I have a computer playing movie automatically in loop,and I want to know which movie is now playing in this computer and report it to a server. I use bash script to do this. If I use "pe -ef|grep mplayer ........" ,it seems to complex. Is there any easier way to get the name and store it in a parameter like $movie_name ?
As answered in Can less retain colored output? I want to use git diff --color=always filename | less -r to get a colored output of my git diffs. Since I use this a lot it would be nice to set up an alias for this.
In my /home/user/.bashrc file, I have those aliases to prevent mistakes:
alias rm='rm -i'
alias cp='cp -i'
alias mv='mv -i'
If I'm really sure of what I'm doing, I can overwrite rm and mv aliases using rm -f or mv -f, it will not ask me if I really want to overwrite files.
The problem, is that it doesn't work for the cp command, using cp -f will still ask me a question.
Is this normal?
