node-music-mplayer

A node.js wrapper for MPlayer, which allows you to play audio files (e.g. mp3, wav, ogg...) on your soundcard.

This wrapper uses mplayer's slave mode.

This project is forked from @loics2 and is done to approaching an even better api which allows a more fluent and an expanded usage of mplayer's slave mode options.

##Usage

1. Firstly you need MPlayer, which can be downloaded here.

2. When mplayer is available through command line, install node-music-mplayer

Then, you need to make a new instance of the module.

var player = require('node-music-mplayer'); 

var player = new Mplayer(arg1, arg2);

arg1 represents either a string, representing the path to the file you want to play or an object of options

if arg1 is the path string, then arg2 can be the object of options

##Stability

This module uses the readline module, which is currently marked unstable.

This module has been tested on Windows 8.1 with MPlayer 4.9.2
