Shell script as a "remote"

[ghost]

I've been using this with a script I wrote that works as my remote for controlling playback of all my open mpv windows. please check it out and do with it as you please :-)

Usage: $ mpv_remote COMMAND [all | PID[,PID]]
Example:  mpv_remote play all
          mpv_remote next
          mpv_remote pause 845
          mpv_remote pause 845,846

mpv_remote.sh

Looks great! Glad you've found this plugin useful.

FWIW if you're only interested in controlling mpv it might be useful to look into https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/blob/master/DOCS/man/ipc.rst as you can do more mpv specific stuff not exposed by the mpris api.

I'm going to close this for now since it isn't really an issue.
