Is there a Media Player like program available under FreeBSD?
Now that I have my answering machine mailing me my messages in
ADPCM format, I'd like to do the following:
When I select to "play" the voice mail from elm, I want to send
the file to a "Media Player" that will appear on my X console and
let me do media player type manipulations of the message.
(mostly just replay it)
Currently I just pipe the file to vplay.
My setup is such that often times my mail, my X display, and my soundcard
are in different machines. Basically I'm hoping to arrange a setup
along the lines of:
using metamail and elm:
msg_play & (where msg_play does:)
rcp's adpcm format messages to machine_with_soundcard
rsh machine_with_soundchard Xmediaplayer -display \
myXdisplay:0 message
I'm currently doing the above, just without a "MediaPlayer" type tool.
I have a similar setup for faxes, postscript documents, and MPEG clips,
using gv, gv, and tmplay (from talisman MPEG decoder).
Someone responded that nas might have the functionality I need.
Let me know if you can think of any others.
thanks,
