Hi everyone,
Thank you for your time to read this. I have a little question about
how to write a C program to control mplayer in slave mode.
I have the file mp3 file I want to play stored in a structure as a
string;
record[i].media
I start MPlayer using popen().
mplayer_s_pointer = popen("mplayer -slave -idle","w"); //Start MPlayer
slave
I could use;
mplayer_s_pointer = popen("mplayer -slave -idle /xxx.mp3","w"); //
Start MPlayer
But I want to change the audio file to play dependant on inputs, hence
I need to call the mp3 to play from a structure.
I've tried;
intreturn = write(mplayer_s_pointer, record[i].media, 8);
and
fprintf(mplayer_s_pointer, "/%s\n", record[i].media);
but none seem to work. Can anyone advise me how I would/could pass
mplayer a string from a structure?
Thank you again for your time,
Rob
