Which program plays videos?
I can not find out which program plays videos under xbian/kodi. Which program do I have to start if I want to play a video from the command line?
My idea is a video player which plays all videos which are stored on a memory stick. I want no playlist, no remote control, nothing. I only want to write a small Perl script which collects a list of all videos on the memory stick, creates a random order and plays all videos. Therefore I need a command line call for the video player. |

By running Kodi you just wasting resources... ~~~~>>>Please always follow rules and read before you post<<<~~~~ |

There is omxplayer which does what I want.

There is a standalone omxplayer, I use it all the time. Just shutdown Kodi and use omxplayer, you must install it first of course.
