let window = new Window({
  title: "simplemedia nodejs",
  width: 640,
  height: 480,
});
let renderer = window.createRenderer();

let player = new MediaPlayer({
  renderer: renderer,
  trace: true,
});
player.datasource = media_uri;
player.prepare().then(resolve => {
  console.log('duration: ' + player.duration);
  player.start();
}).catch(err => {
  console.log(err);
});

player.onend = (() => {
  console.log('end-of-stream!');
