From aee0978d50e21d8f114382fdb9c014c029f71a04 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: wm4 Date: Thu, 12 Feb 2015 22:41:45 +0100 Subject: player: add a --loop=force mode Requested. See manpage additions. This also makes the magical loop_times constants slightly saner, but shouldn't change the semantics of any existing --loop option values. --- DOCS/man/options.rst | 7 ++++++- 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'DOCS') diff --git a/DOCS/man/options.rst b/DOCS/man/options.rst index 648eabcf4d..a7ec90b2ff 100644 --- a/DOCS/man/options.rst +++ b/DOCS/man/options.rst @@ -107,12 +107,17 @@ Playback Control If ``--audio-pitch-correction`` is used, playing with a speed higher than normal automatically inserts the ``scaletempo`` audio filter. -``--loop=`` +``--loop=`` Loops playback ``N`` times.
