Advanced Tips
-------------

Playlist Name Completion
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When using ``open``, ``view`` or ``play``  to access a playlist, you can enter
the first few characters instead of the whole name.  The first alphabetically
matching playlist will be opened / displayed.

Invocation
~~~~~~~~~~

To play a saved playlist when invoking mps use the following command:

    ``mps play <playlistname>``

This also works for other commands, eg:

    ``mps .mozart`` to search 

    ``mps view <playlistname>`` to view a saved playlist

    ``mps ls`` to list saved playlists

    ``mps top`` to list top tracks this week

    ``mps open moz`` to open a saved playlist called mozart.

Specifying Ranges
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When selecting songs for playback, removing or adding you can use ``5-`` to 
select song 5 upward and ``-5`` to select up to song 5.  This can be included
with other choices so for example: ``5,3,7-,-2``.  You can also use spaces
instead of commas eg. ``5 3 7- -2``.

Quality / Bitrate
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Add ``+best`` to a search query to return high bitrate results or ``+good`` to
exclude them.

Using MPV instead of MPlayer
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you have `mpv <http://mpv.io>`_ installed and want to use that instead of mplayer;

From within mps::

    set player mpv
    set playerargs --really-quiet --no-video

Other Configuration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To view configuration, enter ``set`` and to change any item enter: 
``set <item> <value>``.  This can be used to change the download path (DDIR)
and will persist after exiting the program.  To reset all settings to default,
use ``set all default`` or for a single item, ``set <item> default``

~~~~~~~~~~

Use this software at your own risk, it downloads content from pleer.com, an
online mp3 file repository.
