Play remote files

[realrecordzLab]

Is possible to play a remote file using this library?

[jaredpetersen]

Nope. This is just a wrapper over various CLI tools for playing audio and I believe they all require the file to be on disk.

with spawn('path/to/vlc' ['https://foo.bar']) vlc is able to play a remote file from url. It will be a nice feature to have in this library

Yeah, it also looks like there is some checking done on the provided filepath to ensure that it's on disk. We support VLC via cvlc but the filepath checks will still ruin your day.
