Also, check out mplayer! I use it to play mp3's off my command line -- works fine and (I am not sure) supports playlists.

The best I can come up with is to throw them all on the command line with a
program like xargs, but it's a bit tricky because mp3's often have spaces in
the names which makes madplay treat each part of the name as a separate file
which will obviously not make it make pretty sounds.
I whipped this line up using [g]awk to put quotation marks around each
filename, though, before passing them into xargs, and it seems to work
pretty well with my tests:
find /home/msteeds/Music/ -name \*[mM][Pp]3 | awk '{print "\""$0"\""}' |
xargs madplay
of course if you have like a text file listing of songs you want in your
"playlist" (like an .m3u, say) you should be able to just replace that find
with a cat as in:
cat myPlaylist.m3u | awk '{print "\""$0"\""}' | xargs madplay
but I didn't actually try that.

Subject: [Siglinux] madplay playlists
I've recently been playing around with some command line mp3 players. I
cannot figure out how to do a playlist for madplay. I know it can accept
multiple files, but beyond listing them all on the command line I can't get
it to work. I know that the following will work for mpg123:
mpg123 --list <(find /home/mtseeds/Music/ -name '*.mp3')
However this doesn't work for madplay (mainly because madplay does not have
the --list option). I know that there are playlist managers that work with
madplay, but those all require X Windows. I'm trying to keep this strictly
command line. I'm trying to use madplay because I've discovered a couple of
mp3's I have that mpg123 can't play, but madplay can. Any help would be
appreciated.
