# mpv Syndicate
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A proof-of-concept for a new kind of
|
|
|
|
|
[plumbing](http://doc.cat-v.org/plan_9/4th_edition/papers/plumb).
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
The `mpv_syndicate` program starts an idle mpv instance and waits for assertions
|
|
|
|
|
that enqueue videos. When this program is renamed (symlinked to `mpv_syndicate`)
|
|
|
|
|
then it will enqueue each URI passed as command arguments.

Requires a local [Syndicate server](https://syndicate-lang.org/tools/broker/)
|
|
|
|
|
and is hardcoded to open a UNIX socket at `/run/syndicate/ds`.
