Hello,
Regarding old mpv versions: Ubuntu 14.04 has a fairly old version 0.3.4.
It does not support --ipc-unix-socket, but it does have --input-file,
which can be FIFO as well. I think that would be the best approach to
control mpv from EMMS: besides being simple file I/O, it would probably
work with virtually any mpv version in use.
The only problem now is that I cannot find any portable way to create
FIFOs in elisp (mpv does not create one but assumes an existing FIFO).
Any suggestions on how to do this? Or should I ask for advice on
emacs-help?
Thanks,
Petteri
