mplayer: Play All Mp3 Files In Reverse Order


mplayer lacks an option for selecting files in a reverse order. So here is a quick way to playback all mp3 files in reverse order:
$ ls -1 -r *.mp3 > mp3.rev
$ mplayer -playlist mp3.rev

Where,
  • -r reverse order while sorting
  • -1 list one file per line
  • -playlist file : Play files according to a playlist file
