control mpv for easy note-taking

This package is a potpourri of helper functions to control a mpv process via its IPC interface.

Installation

mpv.el is available on MELPA and NonGNU ELPA:

M-x package-install mpv

To start playback, have a look at mpv-play (for single files) and mpv-start (for passing arbitrary arguments to mpv, e.g., URLs). Among others, mpv.el provides

  • mpv-pause
  • mpv-kill
  • mpv-seek-forward / mpv-seek-backward
  • mpv-speed-increase / mpv-speed-decrease
  • mpv-volume-increase / mpv-volume-decrease
  • mpv-insert-playback-position
  • mpv-seek-to-position-at-point
  • mpv-playlist-next / mpv-playlist-prev

Apart from that, just have a look at the interactive functions in mpv.el or the wiki for tips on configuration.
