Smart Video Player - Manage Playlists - Torrent Downloads

Hello,

I'm just creating this post to share you my software Phantom Player, that I find very practical, and I made it available at the AUR.

For the description, here you have a copy-paste from the webpage, and don't hesitate to provide your feedback ;}



A Simple but Smart Video Player

Phantom Player offers a range of practical features, making it easy to play, organize, and manage videos from your hard drive. Whether you're watching individual videos or managing playlists, it provides a seamless experience.

Key features:

  • Playlists:: Play videos in order or randomly, with no repetitions.

  • Last Played Memory: Remembers the last played playlist and video progress.

  • Custom Play Order: Organize the play order to your preference.

  • Video Hiding: Hide specific videos or files from a playlist.

  • Automatic Video Discovery: Automatically detect new, renamed, or moved videos.

  • Skip Intro/Credits: Set start and end times to skip intros or credits.

  • Audio/Subtitle Defaults: Set default audio and subtitle tracks for all videos.

  • Screen Saver Control: Disable screen savers while watching.

  • Loop Mode: Play videos in a continuous loop.

  • Rename Videos: Rename videos for a better organization & display.

  • And more...

Play Single Videos

Phantom Player isn’t just for playlists—it also plays single videos:

  • Via Desktop Interface: Right-click the video > "Open With" > Phantom Player (or double-click if set as default player).

  • Via Command Line: Use the command phantom-player --open-file="/path/to/file".

If the video is part of a playlist, Phantom Player will automatically select the appropriate playlist.

Create Playlists from Torrents

Phantom Player is ideal for managing videos from torrents while preserving data integrity for seeding. It allows to:

  • Add a parent directory to create a recursive playlist.

  • Include multiple directories in one playlist.

  • Filter out only fully downloaded videos*.

  • Rename videos for a cleaner, more organized look.

  • Automatically exclude non-video files.

  • Automatically detect newly added or renamed videos.

Note: Partially downloaded files must have the .part extension to be excluded.


Organize Videos on a Hard Drive

Phantom Player makes it easy to organize videos stored on a hard drive. By adding a root directory, and set it as a recursive playlist, Phantom Player is able to scan the entire drive and create a playlist containing all the videos. This allows to:

  • Identify all videos and their paths.

  • Find and manage duplicate videos.

  • Rename videos for consistency.

  • Delete unwanted videos.
