Re: [dev] surf crash

[Cág]

Greg,

Try re-installing libjavascriptcoregtk-1.0-0.
It is fairly common for dpkg to install
broken packages. Those Gdk and dbus warnings
you received when running surf shouldn't be
vital.

If that still doesn't work, bewray your
config.mk to us.

Hiro, thanks for the reply.

i'm not sure how to interpret the first line.  if it means compile Linux
without dbus, i'm afraid i don't know how to do that.  (but, with hints
and some time, could possibly figure it out; i'm running lubuntu.)

if the first line means surf(1), i don't (grep(1) doesn't) see any
references to dbus in the sources.

for the second line, i downloaded the current (0.7) release of surf,
compiled with -g.  below is the output (*does* look a bit like someone
stomped on the stack).

cheers, Greg

I wrote the following script that does most of what I want.
The only thing it lacks is support for mass reorder.

#!/bin/sh

number=0
if test "$1" = -n; then
number=1
shift 1
fi
if test "$1" = --; then
shift 1
fi
if ! test $# = 0; then
cd -- "$1"
fi

if test $number = 1; then
n="$(ls -1 | wc -l)"
i=1
ls -1 | while read f; do
mv -- "$f" "00$(seq -w 0 $n | sed 1,${i}d | sed 1q) - $f"
i=$(expr $i + 1)
done
fi

current="$(ls -1 | head -n 1)"
while mpv -- "$current"; do
index=$(ls -1 | grep -Fnx -- "$current" | cut -d : -f 1)
index=$(expr $index)
if test $index -ge $(ls -1 | wc -l); then
break
fi
current="$(ls -1 | sed 1,${index}d | sed 1q)"
done

Unless you didn't play that directory with `mpv playlist/*`, but with a
simple script which takes the alphabetically first file, plays it,
removes it when played succesfully, and takes the next. `while mpv "$(ls
playlist | head -1)"; do true; done`, am I right?

My personal solution to this problem is to simply use mpv from CLI per
file. There is simply no playlist, but I really don't need one,
though, which saves me of the additional complexity to have to adjust
it as I go. You might be used to do something while you're bored
watching a video, but maybe you should just find better stuff to watch
in that case.
If I want to abort viewing the current video I just press 'q' to exit
and then can decide what to watch next, which really goes well with
the fact that I just download interesting stuff I plan to watch to ~.
How about you find a way you can make your videos easily accessible
for you?

cheers!

I think a simple script should work. Not sure about
the dynamic management of the playlist though. I
switched to ffplay for video and mpg123 for audio,
because mplayer stopped decoding both mp3 and mp4
correctly for some reason.

By the way, has anyone tried OSS on Linux recently?

The problem with this approach is that I cannot
edit the list whilst it is playing, except for
removing files.

The simplest way I can imagine is to link them into a directory
temporarily and/or permanently with:

mkdir playlist
ln *some_glob_pattern* playlist

Then use the vidir(1) program to edit the files to number them
sequentially the way you want. Then you can either create a playlist and
delete the directory using some basic command line tools or just keep
the directory as a playlist.

I don't need it all the time, I use mpv too, but sometimes
I have a lot of videos I want to watch, but not in alphabetical
order, so I have to reorder them sometimes, and sometimes
I want to move a video in the playlist down because I feel
like watching it later. Sometimes I also want to add new
videos to the playlist.

Forgot to mention that it is preferable if it can playback
videos in faster than normal tempo. But I can work around
this with ffmpeg if necessary.

While vlc is admittedly a bunch of crap, I have no real suggestion for
a playlist editing player. you could wrap mpv with some
playlist-managing DIY thing, though, as it does IPC but could as well
be quit with SIGQUIT...

What's the reasoning behind this question though, why do you need to
edit the playlist all the time?

[dev] Request for video player recommendation with a good playlist

[Mattias Andrée]

Ahoy!

Does any have a recommendation for a video player
that has a good playlist where files can easily
be reordered? I'm getting tired of VLC causing
X to crash (although it looks like it is exiting
without actually crashing or aborting). So I don't
really care how crappy it is, as long as it has a
good playlist and does not crash X.
