[vdr] let mplayer.sh expand movies

[daniel peess <mailinglists@peess.de>]

hi,

i've got many movies that aren't full pal size, so mplayer needs to expand them.
besides, as the mplayer plugin only allows the selection of one file, i added a playlist mode:

sum your files together in a .pls file, e.g. like that:
cd /video/dvd/fast_and_furious/
find * -iname '*.vob' > fast_and_furious.pls

all files listed in 'fast_and_furious.pls' get then played by mplayer.

here's the modified script:

#!/bin/bash
#
# This script is called from VDR to start MPlayer
#
# argument 1: the file to play
# argument 2: the phrase SLAVE if SlaveMode is enabled

# mplayer options for SlaveMode
SLAVE="-slave -quiet -nolirc"

if [ "$2" != "SLAVE" ]; then SLAVE=""; fi


FILES="$1"
## playlist files have to be of same kind, may only contain relative path
names
case "$1" in *.pls)
        FILES=""
        for PART in `cat $1`; do FILES="$FILES `dirname $1`/$PART"; done
        ;;
esac

## now the options for mplayer
case "$FILES" in
(*.avi | *.AVI)
        OPTS="-vop expand=720:576 -af volume=+10:0:1:0"
        ;;
(*.vob | *.VOB)
        OPTS="-af volume=+20:0:1:0"
        ;;
(*.ogm | *.OGM)
        OPTS="-vop expand=720:576 -af volume=+10:0:1:0"
        ;;
*)
        echo "file $1 has unknown video file format"
        echo "edit mplayer.sh to support this file type"
        exit 1
        ;;
esac

logger mplayer.sh $1 $2
exec mplayer -vo mpegpes -ao mpegpes $SLAVE $OPTS $FILES

#eof mplayer.sh
