Phantom Player is a simple but smart video player. It can play single videos or reproduce and organize lists of videos from a hard-drive. Some of its major features are:
- Play lists of videos in order or randomly (without repeating videos).
- Remember the last played playlist, and the videos progress.
- Organize the play order.
- Hide videos or files.
- Automatically discover new/renamed/moved videos.
- Set a start/end time to skip the introduction/credits.
- Set the default audio/subtitle track.
- Turn off the screensaver while playing.
- Keep playing mode.
- Rename videos.
- and more...
Playing single videos
It is not mandatory to create playlists, it can also play single videos.
- With the desktop interface: right-click > open with > Phantom-Player (or if already configured, just with a double click).
- With a command: --open-file='/path/to/file'
Creating playlists from torrents
When it comes to torrents, the most important is to not modify the data to continue seeding. With Phantom Player, you can:
- Add a parent directory and create a recursive playlist.
- Add multiple directories to a playlist.
- Filter the fully downloaded videos*.
- Rename the videos to have a nicer look.
- Automatically ignore all the non-videos files.
- Automatically discover new videos.
Organizing videos on a hard-drive
Phantom Player is great for organizing data from a hard-drive. For example, you can add the root directory of the hard-drive as a playlist path and set it as recursive. It will then scan the whole hard-drive and create a playlist with all the videos. This will allow you to:
- Identify all the videos (and their paths).
- Identify the duplicated videos.
- Rename videos.
- Delete videos.
