draw a progress bar while playing a song

example output:

 ab9176Srb5Y; ogg; 3 Mb; 01:42 (39%)  [===========>..................]

Thanks! Pretty neat!

I can't get this branch to play nicely with mpv. I realise the regex's need to be different for capturing the mpv output, but the issue is that when mpv is called it doesn't receive the keyboard input (q is echoed in the terminal window instead). I think it's to do with the red warning box described here: http://docs.python.org/2/library/subprocess.html#popen-objects

Another issue is that it doesn't work in Python3. When playing an item I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):                                          
  File "./mpsyt", line 2942, in <module>
    main()
  File "./mpsyt", line 2912, in main
    if matchfunction(k, v, userinput):
  File "./mpsyt", line 2824, in matchfunction
    globals()[funcname](*matches)
  File "./mpsyt", line 1897, in play
    play_range(songlist, shuffle, repeat, override)
  File "./mpsyt", line 1984, in play_range
    playsong(song, override=override)
  File "./mpsyt", line 1266, in playsong
    mplayer_status(p, songdata + ";")
  File "./mpsyt", line 1315, in mplayer_status
    if char in '\r\n':
TypeError: 'in <string>' requires string as left operand, not bytes

I tried messing with str and encode/decode but couldn't get it to work.

Having said that, I really appreciate these changes and want to include them in the main branch but at the moment they only work with Python 2 and mplayer. Not sure it works on Windows, I haven't tested it, I assume it does since you submitted it! Neither of the problems mentioned above are specific to this pull request.

Cool that works, thank you 👍

I can't get mpv working on my Windows system, nor can I succeed to compile or install it on my Ubuntu Quantal vm. Could give me an example of output from mpv so I can rework a regex ?

Sure:

A: 00:00:07 / 00:05:37 (2%) Cache: 46%

and for video:

AV: 00:00:03 / 00:03:30 (1%) A-V: -0.000 Cache: 14%

It looks like mpv is sending the progress time data to stderr, that could be the reason I was having the issues I mentioned earlier.
