EDBROWSE-PLUGIN-MPV(1) General Commands Manual EDBROWSE-PLUGIN-MPV(1)

NAME

edbrowse-plugin-mpv - play a media stream for edbrowse using mpv

SYNOPSIS

edbrowse-plugin-mpv [mpv-option...] file-or-url

DESCRIPTION

edbrowse-plugin-mpv is a helper invoked by edbrowse(1) through the plugin config fragments installed in /usr/share/edbrowse/plugins. It is not normally run by hand.

The script passes all its arguments on to mpv(1). If the environment variable PLUGINHEADERS is set, its value is handed to mpv as --http-header-fields, so that cookies and other headers edbrowse used to reach the resource are reused for the media request.

ENVIRONMENT

HTTP headers to forward to mpv, as set by edbrowse.

SEE ALSO
