mp: A Music Player

This is a simple command line music player. It will play individual music files (flac, mp3, ogg, and wav), directories that contain music files, and m3u play lists.

Tested with Python versions 2.7 and 3.3 under Fedora Linux. You will need install the docutils, GI, gstreamer, and mutagen packages for python with:

yum install python-docutils python-gi gstreamer-python gstreamer-plugins-good

pip install python-mutagen

or with python3

dnf install python3-gobject python3-gstreamer1 gstreamer-plugins-good

pip3 install mutagen

If you want mp3 support, you also need to install the 'ugly' plugins from the RPM Fusion non-free repository:

yum install gstreamer1-plugins-ugly

If you do not want mp3 support, edit music_player/prefs.py and remove 'mp3' from mediaFileExtensions.
