This project helps you play and control movies on a TV or projector using simple chat messages or other remote commands. You set up a computer (like a Raspberry Pi or old laptop) with VLC, and then use a separate remote control app to send instructions. It takes your commands (like "play Dune") and outputs the video playing on your screen, perfect for someone wanting to manage a home theater system remotely.

No commits in the last 6 months. Available on PyPI.

Use this if you want to control your VLC media player remotely from another device, especially if you enjoy using chat-like commands.

Not ideal if you're looking for a simple, out-of-the-box remote control solution without needing to set up server components or if you don't use VLC.
