option to halt video on last frame

[bernhard@…]

Hi!

I want an option that makes mplayer halt/pause the video on the last frame.

wm4@#mplayer@… already implemented that in his mpv fork.

Thx

Can possibly be found here: ​https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv

I don't think there is anything to implement, -idle -fixed-vo should already behave like that.
Or did you think of some other behaviour?

[bernhard@…]

mplayer -idle -fixed-vo latest_1024_4500.mpg

closes the video window at the end of the video, but doesn't quit in the shell. 'q' quits mplayer then.

I want the video window to remain open, preferably with a chance to rewind.

That might be a VDPAU issue/bug, can you try with -vo gl instead?

[reimar]

Just to clarify: it works fine for me with -vo gl, including switching to fullscreen etc.

[bernhard@…]

mplayer -idle -fixed-vo -vo gl latest_1024_4500.mpg

same thing

You are using MPlayer2, that is a fork and we have nothing to do with it.
Did you actually try MPlayer?
I can't say for sure, there might be some conditions that break it, but as said, it definitely worked when I tested it.

[bernhard@…]

Umm, yes, mplayer2. IIRC I 'upgraded' that to fix an issue, dunno which.

Thx. I guess you can close this then.

No MPlayer issue.
