After playing a file it then plays the previous file

Re: SOPA. Good or Bad? Your Thoughts

It's a very interesting topic. I think all governments would like more control and technology provides many ways to get it. Why do they want more control over what the populace does? Firstly perhaps to be able to tax people then perhaps for crime fighting purposes. In any case knowledge is power, as...

Re: TV Playlist

As an addendum to my addendum, I'm addenduming all over the place here!

Re: TV Playlist

After a little experimentation I have found that the playlist file does not need to be in XML format and does not need to have the .xspf extension, you can leave it as .txt As an example, if you make a new text file (in windows explorer you can right-click in a folder and choose 'new text file') I h...

Re: Use my windows mobile phone as headset

Ok, no takers so far, let me simplify the scenario to see if anyone can help.

How would I simply stream all audio from my PC?

Never mind about which device will be receiving the stream, it could be another PC but what are the settings I would need to stream all audio from my PC?

TIA, Ian

Re: Filename NOT showing at start of playback

Secondment: Please make VLC display the filename in the title bar. When playing episodes, you go to play the next episode and want to see what was that file I just played? Oh, I can't see. So you end up guessing where you are, playing a file and scanning through it to see if you've seen it already. ...
