This is a fairly simple OSC server/listener for mpv. Pretty hacky to say the least.
mpv --script=mpv-osc.lua ~/Videos/awesome-video.mp4
This script uses 5005 port by default but it's possible to overwrite this config:
--script-opts osc-port=50723
Ideally, you'd like to remove audio and on-screen stuff when playing with this:
mpv --volume=-1 \ # mute audio
--osd-level=0 --no-osc \ # disable on-screen stuff
--script=mpv-osc.lua \ # the actual script
--script-opts osc-port=50723 \ # custom options
~/Videos/awesome-video.mp4 # our favourite vid
Since I only needed a couple of mpv functions, just went for the basic stuff, such as:
/play, takes no values./pause, takes no values./toggle, takes no values./position, takes a single float value (from 0.0 to 100.0) that represents playback position.
In SCLang format:
m = NetAddr.new("127.0.0.1", 5005);
(
Pdef(\mpv,
Pbind(
\dur, 1,
\position, Pxrand((10,10.1..90), inf).stutter(Pwhite(1,4)),
\play, Pfunc{ |e| m.sendMsg("/position", e.position); }
)
)
)
Pdef(\mpv).play
Pdef(\mpv).clear
