The idea behind the “simple play widget” is to offer a button-centric widget that can play audio files and video files, solely through mpv (or perhaps also mplayer).
I had that idea after creating the gtk-radio widgets for MultimediaParadise
, and realizing that it may be simpler and better to just abstract the underlying play-functionality.
Once that is done it can be re-used for both the internet-radio-specific parts, as well as for playing local audio/video files (through mpv).
