= Paradiso

A small lightweight command line interface for mplayer.

== Install

sudo gem install paradiso

== Usage

To play files

paradiso file1 file2

To create a playlist

paradiso -pn playlist file1 file2 dir1

To play a playlist and remove the items that has been already played

paradiso -pd playlist

== RAR-archives

It's possible to stream rar-archives, it works exactly like other parameters, but will remove "duplicates", i.e. if there's a filename.rar, filename.r00 and filename.r01 then we'll just keep the first occurrence.

Note: There seems to be a problem with the unrar installed from the package manager port[http://www.macports.org/] for Mac OS X, but everything seems to work fine for the version installed through homebrew[http://github.com/mxcl/homebrew].

== Config file

Paradiso has some basic support for a config file

touch ~/.paradiso

Sample config file, in YAML

fullscreen : true aspectratio : "16:10"

It's also possible to tell where mplayer is located or specify another name of mplayer by adding this to the config file:

player: /usr/local/bin/mplayer player: mplayer32

Same goes for unrar:

unrar: /usr/local/bin/unrar

Ignore file endings:

ignore_endings: ["nfo", "sfv", "txt"] # default ignore_endings: ["avi"]

Show a timestamp for each started item:

timestamp: true # defaults to false

== TODO

• Better playlist support
• Other mediums then just avi et al(DVD, Bluray and so on)
• Handle meta-data
• Config stuff, file ratios and such.
