Writing a simple MPV plugin in Crystal

This is a POC! It is a mpv plugin, written in crystal, using the C plugin interface of mpv.

Installation

MPV's C plugins interface is disabled by default, you'll need to build mpv with --enable-cplugin to activate it.

Build mpv

Follow the instructions at mpv-player/mpv to build mpv. When asked to configure the project, run:

$ ./waj configure --enable-cplugin

Continue the other steps to compile mpv.

Build the plugin

Build the plugin's shared library with:

$ make

If you want to rebuild it, use:

$ make re

To clean the repository, and re-build the plugin.

Usage

Once you have your custom mpv build and the plugin's shared library, you can run test it with:

$ /path/to/custom/mpv /path/to/media/file  --script ./mpv-crystal-simple-plugin.so
