webtorrent-mpv-hook

npm mpv

Adds a hook that allows mpv to stream torrents using webtorrent.

Prerequisites

  • node.js

Install

  1. npm install --global webtorrent-mpv-hook
  2. You need to symlink a script file to your mpv scripts folder.
    Run webtorrent-mpv-hook for instructions.
    You only need to do this once.

Usage

mpv <torrent-id>

Where torrent-id is one of:

  • magnet link
  • info-hash

An overlay will be shown with info/progress. It will be closed automatically when playback starts.
It can also be toggled manually with p (default).

Multi-file torrents are opened as a playlist.
