setOptions({loop:0}) doesn't seem to work about mplayer HOT 8 OPEN

Have you set the option before or after .play()? Because it works fine, if I set it before playing. Probably does not apply after playing the track.

Look at my last solution! Not this one!
Ok I don't know why it worked at first or if I got confused with other tests. Now it was also broken for me. Anyways...
The problem it seems is that the varargs do not work. Due to this the length of the argument is always 0/undefined so the length check fails everytime.

My Solution (dirty fix):

Pass the arguments as an array:

• .setOptions(['loop 0','speed 2'])//multiple args
• .setOptions('loop 0')//single arg

And modify the line with 'set_property' in the setOptions function inside the index.js to:

• this.player.cmd('set_property', value);//[key, value] old code

Beware that the changes might get overwritten by npm after an other installations. So copy the mplayer folder into the project root and use the following instead:

• require('./mplayer'); //for local module

This solution is not really elegant compared to the one of noodny's, but it ain't broken for me.
Maybe he could tell us why it does not work anymore. Could be a problem with lodash, but its just a bad guess.
I also tried to set 'loop 0' after the start of the track and it works as long as it is still playing!
I hope this works for you!

I figured the problem out, but I am at university without my laptop today. So I cant test it in Node. I coded in an online Js editor with my phone. So if you want the fix how it should have been in the first place wait until my new post! (in approximately 7h) 😀

Solution

Replace the setOptions function with the following. Now the function should work as expected!

setOptions: function(options) {
        if(options && Object.keys(options).length) {
            Object.keys(options).forEach(function(key) {
                this.player.cmd('set_property', [key, options[key]]);
            }.bind(this));
       }
  }

I want to set the volume before executing player.openPlaylist(). Is this the same issue we are talking about in this issue? The only way for setting the volume seems to be after invoking openPlaylist with a timeout of 1000ms. There must be another way?

from mplayer.

It should probably work with this fix, because every function that sets any option uses setOption.
You can probably use openPlaylist(playlistfile, {volume:40}) to set the volume.
A more patched version of the player can be found at Technici4n/mplayer.
As long as noodny does not merge any pull requests.
