Hi,

I'd like to know whether it is possible to dynamically add (e.g. via some shell script) entries to the VLM configuration? In other words: If someone uploads a new file to the server, can this be automatically added as a VoD stream?

Best regards,
Herman

your upload system would have to connect to vlc using the telnet interface and send a command like: new <streamname> vod enabled input <filename> .

this would be really easy to automate
