Disable random in HTTP interface

[Eagle_Erwin]

I use VLC media player 0.9.6 mainly from a web interface as a MP3 player. It has a playlist with a lot MP3 files.

To toggle the playlist random function, i use:

Code: Select all

http://[server:port]/requests/status.xml?command=pl_random

This works well, but I disable random and I choose a song to play with:

Code: Select all

[server:port]/requests/status.xml?command=pl_play&id=xx

where xx is the node id as seen in /requests/playlist.xml. When that song is finished, the playlist starts from the beginning, in non-random mode. Is it possible to request a song via a web interface while after that song VLC continues the playlist non-random from that song?

This behavior works well whit the normal (Qt?) interface in Windows. When I click a song in the playlist, the playlist continues playing from there after the song is finished.

I think you either have to use multiple commands or change web interface sourcecode and compile new interface.
