neocdtv / player-core

Simple Java API for mplayer and omxplayer

What

This project offers a Java API to control mplayer and omxplayer. It was tested only on Linux.

How

Maven

<dependency>
  <groupId>io.neocdtv</groupId>
  <artifactId>player-core</artifactId>
  <version>0.7</version>
</dependency>

Ubuntu/Debian

# you always need to install mplayer, even if you want to use omxplayer
# the mplayer is used to get info about the multimedia file i.e. duration
sudo apt-get install mplayer

# omxplayer on raspberry pi 
sudo apt-get install omxplayer

Java

public static void main(String[] args) {
    final EventsHandler eventsHandler = new MPlayerEventsHandler();
    final Player player = new MPlayer(eventsHandler)
    //final Player player = new OmxPlayer(eventsHandler);
    final String url = "http://somedomain.eu/video.mp4";
    player.play(url);
}

EventsHandler

You can find a example of a EventsHandler implementation in my other project: https://github.com/neocdtv/leanplayer-renderer/blob/master/src/main/java/io/neocdtv/leanplayer/renderer/control/LeanPlayerEventsHandler.java
