[gentoo-user] OT: Avi-player diplaying the current frame counter while playing ?

Hi,

currentlu I am playing around with Blender animations.

To sync certain movements of objects to other objects
I need the exact frame number, at which "something
happens" ;)

The clips are of the avi-format but they are of non
standard resultions. MPlayer does not play them
("no audio found" and that's it) but mpv has no
problem with them.
But mpv only prints the perceantage of how much
is played already (I cant convice mpv otherwise...)

Is there a way to instruct mpv to print the current
frame count while playing?
Are there other players known to do that?

Thanks in advance for any help!
Cheers
Meino
