MPLAY(1) BSD General Commands Manual MPLAY(1)NAMEmplay — a tclmidi script to play a MIDI file
SYNOPSISmplay [-dev -DevicePath] [-repeat] [-smpte] [-quiet] [file]
DESCRIPTIONmplay is a tclmidi(1) script that plays a MIDI file. The file name may
be specified on the command line or read from stdin. The options are as
follows:
-dev -DevicePath
Use the device DevicePath instead of the default /dev/midi0.
-repeat Play the file repeatedly. If not in quiet mode, the playing
may be stopped by pressing the return key. Otherwise the
process must be killed.
-smpte With this flag mplay will use /dev/smpte0 instead of the
default /dev/midi0. It will also let the SMPTE tape cotrol
starting and stopping the song.
-quiet With this option mplay will not print out messages or ask for
input.
Since mplay makes use of the midiplay(n)tclmidi(1) command, this program
will only work if tclmidi(1) was compiled with a device interface.
