Hi,

Anyone know how to do that?
Thanks

You cannot, except by parsing the logs.

Hi,
Thanks
The log can be very large if I use playlist to play 10 files at night. Any idea?
This is a very simple demand. The log may look likes this
2013/5/21 23:59:59,x:\psy.ts
Hope someone can add it later.

A Lua extension could make it.

Hi,
I tried on the input_changed() event but it crash, frequently.
Is there a more understandable object model of VLC?
thanks

input_changed() or meta_changed()
It is a good idea. Then it would be possible to parse the log to see how many times particular media sources were already played, the most / the least played ones.
If you can share your script in the "Scripting VLC in lua" forum, then I could help.

Is there any solution to this? Up until now I used the core media player. I can't make it work anymore (windows xp) and I can't find the time to run a repair install on windows.
coremedia had a simple xml file.
