I have a CentOS 7 server that I want to use as an audio source for our hold music. It does not have a GUI installed, so I am looking for a program with a command line interface that will let me play a folder full of mp3 files on a continuous loop.
MOC seems to do what I want, but I can't find a build for CentOS 7. Is there another program that I can use for this?
is VLC media player available in CentOS 7?
it will play random order and loop. reads thru sub directories.
but, like MOC [Music On Console], there are a few deps.
vlc was recommended by a poster to a thread i started because i was having some webcam problems.
it cured problems and i have enjoyed using it.
i pulled these vlc files from nux.ro

i do not know what they deps are, but i do not recall it being a large amount, maybe 10?
