Pause nor stops works

[Nayar]

Hi,

Using curl, i managed to play a song. However, pause or stop doesn't seem to have any effect. I tried to manually launch omxplayer through CLI

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ mkfifo lolfifo
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ omxplayer Misunderstood-Lil\ Wayne-ykVwmYAUzEg.mp3 < lolfifo 

echoing "." in lolfifo will start playing. But any command after that doesn't seem to work.

Hi,

They seem to work for me. What happens here is something like this:

mkfifo lolfifo
omxplayer Misunderstood-Lil\ Wayne-ykVwmYAUzEg.mp3 < lolfifo 
echo . > lolfifo
echo -n p > lolfifo
echo -n q > lolfifo 
#any other command

I've just tested it and it seems to work just fine, so I'm not sure what exactly may be the issue. The only difference is that I usually use as output the hdmi connection.

On a side note if you want to play a music library I find much easier to do that using mpd.

Worked today. Guess my raspi needed a reboot. Sorry for inconvenience :)
