2EmbedPlayer

A simple Python script that plays movies and TV shows using IMDb and 2embed. This is now deprecated due to 2embed being taken down for copyright infrigement. I'm currently working on another tool so hang tight <3

Features

• Simple: Easy command-line arguments
• Large library: Supports a large library frequently updated by 2embed
• Integratable: Easily integrate into popular launchers, like Alfred

Quick Start

Install using pip:

pip install IMDbPlayer

If you like, you may also use it by downloading and running __main.py__

Usage

2EmbedPlayer works simply - you can use it with a few command-line arguments.

• IMDbPlayer name is used for playing movies.
• IMDbPlayer name season episode is used for TV shows.

Additional Configuration

2EmbedPlayer can be integrated into Alfred on macOS. This allows easy access to playing movies and TV shows by simply searching, rather than opening a terminal.

Prerequisites

• As of 2023, this requires the Alfred Powerpack, which can be purchased from https://www.alfredapp.com/powerpack/
• The source of 2EmbedPlayer

Installation

1. Create a workflow in Alfred
2. Add the keyword, e.g. play
3. Set Argument Required
4. Add Run Script
5. Set the contents to python3 *location of __main__.py* '{query}'
6. Set inputs to with input as {query}
7. Save and use!

This should relatively easily integrate 2EmbedPlayer into macOS, and this may be possible with other launchers -- I haven't tried others.
