I was initially looking for a non-GUI interface to play directories that contain .mp3's and .flv's.
I don't like traditional GUI application with their toolbars, pull-down menus, icons, etc. and I was looking for a lean and mean way of managing my audio and video content. I couldn't find an ncurses application in the debian lenny repositories, but I found freevo, which handles like a (much) prettified equivalent. I absolutely like the looks of it and the interface is a dream as compared to all those menus, submenus, sub-sub-menus, not to mention popups the size of postage stamps where you continuously need to grab the mouse to resize - if they actually let you resize the popup, because they were created with a different screen resolution in mind. I understand that the main objective of freevo is not to just front-end mplayer, but all the same, getting it to do what I want sounds like a better idea than rolling out my own mplayer front-end. :-) I have a few trees with .mp3's and .flv's and I tried the following: $ cd mp3-directory $ freevo I then navigated to Listen to Music -> Audio Folder and all that happens is that I am told that "This directory is empty" - which obviously is not the case. Is there any way I can convince freevo to give me access to these directories, or am just using the wrong tool for the job?
