How to Purge Wine from Chromebook and Chrome os

 To thoroughly purge and uninstall Wine from Debian, start by opening up a terminal window on the Debian desktop. Do this by pressing Ctrl + Alt + T on the keyboard or search for “Terminal” in the app menu. Next, use the rm command to delete your Wine folder from your home directory with the terminal window open. This folder holds all Wine-related apps.

rm -rf ~/.Wine

Next, use the apt-get remove command to uninstall the Wine app and any Wine-related programs on Debian. Finally, be sure to use the –purge command-line switch, as this will also erase any configuration files that happen to be on the system. 

sudo apt-get remove wine* --purge

When everything is uninstalled from Debian, you’ll also need to use the autoremove command to get rid of any remaining Wine packages that might still be there. 

sudo apt-get autoremove -y

Now that the autoremove command is complete, Wine will be purged from Debian.

How to Install mpv player [Potplayer and KMplayer like interface]

 MPV player is one of the most widely used media players used on Windows, Linux and macOS. It is an extremely lightweight player, and you have to customize it according to your need. We have already discussed the differences between the VLC media player and an MPV player, so if you are not into customizations and just need to have a video player that “just works,” then the MPV player might not be for you.

As a user who has used a VLC media player his whole life, I found certain things which I didn’t like about this player, such as the Keyboard shortcuts and the overall look of the player. So I changed it using Lua scripts available on GitHub and a few custom key bindings. In this tutorial, we are going to discuss exactly those customizations which will make it feel more like a VLC player.

sudo apt update && sudo apt install mpv

Now you can run mpv player.

How to Customizing MPV player in chromebook

MPV player is one of the most widely used media players used on Windows, Linux and macOS. It is an extremely lightweight player, and you have to customize it according to your need. We have already discussed the differences between the VLC media player and an MPV player, so if you are not into customizations and just need to have a video player that “just works,” then the MPV player might not be for you. 

Customizing MPV player

Now, let’s start customizing, open your terminal and type the following command to clone scripts from GitHub :

1	git clone https://github.com/maoiscat/mpv-osc-modern

You can use any theme listed on this page.

Now, let’s create a directory which will store all of our scripts and will be utilized by MPV :

1	mkdir ~/.config/mpv/scripts

Now, from the cloned directory, let’s move the Lua scripts into our newly created directory. Type :

1	mv mpv-osc-modern/modern.lua ~/.config/mpv/scripts

Create another directory which will host the font required by this script :

1	mkdir ~/.config/mpv/fonts

Again, move the font in this directory by typing :

1	mv mpv-osc-modern/Material-Design-Iconic-Font.ttf ~/.config/mpv/fonts

Well, that’s it, open any file now to check what mp looks like now :

MPV Player New Interface

I’ve also added other scripts such as file-browser, autoload, and cover-art. You can add them using the above method.

There are many more scripts listed on this page, so you can install any of them that suits your needs.

Now, This part is optional, but I have also changed the key bindings of various actions, you can also do this by creating a file named input.conf using your favourite text editor, type :

For nano users nano ~/.config/mpv/input.conf

Press ‘I’ to get into insert mode if you are using vim. My config file looks something like this :

Custom Key bindings For MPV Player

The above configuration does the following :

UP add volume 3 DOWN add volume -3 WHEEL_UP add volume 3 WHEEL_DOWN add volume -3

or

• ‘The up arrow key’ increase the volume by 5 units
• ‘Down arrow key’ decreases by 5 units
• ‘Mouse/Touchpad scroll up’ increases the volume
• ‘Mouse/Touchpad Scroll down’ decreases the volume
• ‘Swiping left on touchpad’ goes 5 seconds back
• ‘Swiping right on touchpad’ goes 5 seconds forward
• ‘n’ Key will play the next media in the playlist
• ‘p’ key will play the previous file in the playlist

If you are using vim, then press the Escape key and type :wq to save and exit. If you are using nano editor, then press Ctrl+O and Ctrl+X to save and exit.

You should also edit the mpv.conf file to suit your needs, open it in either vim or nano using :

nano ~/.config/mpv/mpv.conf

Add the following lines :

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13

save-position-on-quit=yes # The default volume of mpv when you open it volume=90 blend-subtitles=yes screenshot-directory=~/Pictures/Screenshots screenshot-format=png osc=no # You should read about Hardware acceleration on mpv to choose your correct settings hwdec=vaapi # Display English Subtitles if available slang=en # Defalt audio language alang=en

Press Ctrl+O and Ctrl+X to save and exit if you are using nano and press the Escape key and then type :wq to save and exit out of vim editor.

Enable the ‘autoload’ script by adding a file named autoload.conf file in the script-opts directory :

nano ~/.config/mpv/script-opts/autoload.conf

Add the following lines :

1 2 3 4 5

disabled=no images=yes videos=yes audio=yes ignore_hidden=yes

Again, save and exit out of your editor.

If you have enabled the file-browser script, then you can access the file browser from the terminal by pressing Ctrl+O key, and navigating between the directories using the arrow keys on your keyboard.
