mpv-commander

mpv-commander is a shell script providing a command line wrapper to a headless mpv process. It provides a command line interface with a similar feel as mpc.

Important Caveats

this software is still very much in early development and so the interface will undoubtedly change dramatically and there will definitely be bugs and missing features. Please provide any feedback or bug reports either via the issue tracker or by contacting me at adam@adamthompson.me.uk.
