VLC 1.1.0 FINAL + Playlist .m3u

Postby PeterPan2013 » 22 Jun 2010 16:26

Hello everybody,

since using vlc 1.1.0 (final and RC? too) I have problems to use my good old m3u play lists.

My environments:

- Win 7 x64, file-system NTFS
- all mp3 files are in one folder
- this folder is the second sub folder from root: \\folder1\folder2\mp3-Files & m3u-play list
- in the same folder is my m3u-play list & every mp3-file
- the play list is in ANSI-code & every mp3-file take one line:

File 1.mp3
File 2.mp3
File 3.mp3

That is all to say about it. :)

VLC 1.0.5 works with this play list but 1.1.0 cannot use them :(

VLC 1.1.0 tells this:

File reading failed:
VLC could not open the file "\\X:\Folder 1\folder 2\file1.mp3".
Your input can't be opened:
VLC is unable to open the MRL 'file://X:\folder 1\folder 2\file1.mp3'. Check the log for details.
File reading failed:
VLC could not open the file "\\X:\folder 1\folder 2\file2.mp3".
Your input can't be opened:
VLC is unable to open the MRL 'file://X:\folder 1\folder 2\\file2%file2%file2.mp3'. Check the log for details.

the name from file 2 has 3 words....

I can play every mp3 file without play list.

I have no idea what the problem is because 1.0.5 works great with it. What has changed or what is to do to fix it?


Thanks to everybody who gives me a feedback! :D

Which versions of vlc player supports the function set / play playlist bookmark?
How to Set playlist bookmark preloads at startup (command line in a desktop shortcut).
And how to play pre-loaded playlist bookmark and specific skin with VLC option-click on the button mp3, button-xy video content.
How to adjust the playback window size during the transition from one video clip of the second.

Hey all,

same problem here, the M3U list won't be read, VLC tells me, to view the log-file... (same error as above).
(tested under Win Vista Ultimate 64)

Code: Select all

#EXTM3U #EXTINF:237,38 Special - Something I Need 38 Special - Drivetrain - 01 - Something I Need.mp3 #EXTINF:281,38 Special - Hurts Like Love 38 Special - Drivetrain - 02 - Hurts Like Love.mp3 #EXTINF:242,38 Special - Haley's Got A Harley 38 Special - Drivetrain - 03 - Haley's Got A Harley.mp3 #EXTINF:296,38 Special - Jam On 38 Special - Drivetrain - 04 - Jam On.mp3 #EXTINF:279,38 Special - Make Some Sense Of It 38 Special - Drivetrain - 05 - Make Some Sense Of It.mp3 #EXTINF:235,38 Special - Quick Fix 38 Special - Drivetrain - 06 - Quick Fix.mp3 #EXTINF:303,38 Special - The Squeeze 38 Special - Drivetrain - 07 - The Squeeze.mp3 #EXTINF:312,38 Special - The Play 38 Special - Drivetrain - 08 - The Play.mp3 #EXTINF:302,38 Special - Bad Looks Good On You 38 Special - Drivetrain - 09 - Bad Looks Good On You.mp3 #EXTINF:206,38 Special - Trooper With An Attitude 38 Special - Drivetrain - 10 - Trooper With An Attitude.mp3 #EXTINF:304,38 Special - Hiding From Yourself 38 Special - Drivetrain - 11 - Hiding From Yourself.mp3 #EXTINF:308,38 Special - Sheriff's County Line 38 Special - Drivetrain - 12 - Sheriff's County Line.mp3
this is the m3u-list, the songs are in the same folder as the list - 10 minutes ago it worked under 1.0.5, but under 1.1.0 it won't.....
(downgraded to 1.0.5... waiting for bugfixes and/or some good answers)

cheers

VLC 1.1.0 doesn't work with *any* of my m3u playlists

Postby BugMeNot2 » 23 Jun 2010 22:56

As far as I can tell, m3u support in VLC 1.1.0 is completely broken - how this passes even the most basic regression testing is beyond my comprehension :shock: I've been using m3u files with VLC for many years. As of VLC 1.1.0 suddenly none of them work. I get the same sort of errors as the previous poster. Most (but not all) of my m3u files were created with MP3 Book Helper, although I can see nothing unusual about any of the m3u files I've created in that way. An example m3u file that will not work in VLC 1.1.0 but works fine in foobar2000:

Code: Select all

#EXTM3U #EXTINF:233,Diablo Swing Orchestra - Balrog Boogie Diablo Swing Orchestra - Butcher's Ballroom - 01 - Balrog Boogie.mp3 #EXTINF:322,Diablo Swing Orchestra - Heroines Diablo Swing Orchestra - Butcher's Ballroom - 02 - Heroines.mp3 #EXTINF:291,Diablo Swing Orchestra - Poetic Pitbull Revolutions Diablo Swing Orchestra - Butcher's Ballroom - 03 - Poetic Pitbull Revolutions.mp3 #EXTINF:233,Diablo Swing Orchestra - Rag Doll Physics Diablo Swing Orchestra - Butcher's Ballroom - 04 - Rag Doll Physics.mp3 #EXTINF:114,Diablo Swing Orchestra - D'angelo Diablo Swing Orchestra - Butcher's Ballroom - 05 - D'angelo.mp3 #EXTINF:245,Diablo Swing Orchestra - Velvet Embracer Diablo Swing Orchestra - Butcher's Ballroom - 06 - Velvet Embracer.mp3 #EXTINF:110,Diablo Swing Orchestra - Gunpowder Chant Diablo Swing Orchestra - Butcher's Ballroom - 07 - Gunpowder Chant.mp3 #EXTINF:294,Diablo Swing Orchestra - Infralove Diablo Swing Orchestra - Butcher's Ballroom - 08 - Infralove.mp3 #EXTINF:193,Diablo Swing Orchestra - Wedding March for a Bullet Diablo Swing Orchestra - Butcher's Ballroom - 09 - Wedding March for a Bullet.mp3 #EXTINF:76,Diablo Swing Orchestra - Qualms of Conscience Diablo Swing Orchestra - Butcher's Ballroom - 10 - Qualms of Conscience.mp3 #EXTINF:287,Diablo Swing Orchestra - Zodiac Virtues Diablo Swing Orchestra - Butcher's Ballroom - 11 - Zodiac Virtues.mp3 #EXTINF:249,Diablo Swing Orchestra - Porcelain Judas Diablo Swing Orchestra - Butcher's Ballroom - 12 - Porcelain Judas.mp3 #EXTINF:366,Diablo Swing Orchestra - Pink Noise Waltz Diablo Swing Orchestra - Butcher's Ballroom - 13 - Pink Noise Waltz.mp3
Here's a sample Location field from the Media Information that appears for a track loaded into the Playlist from the above m3u file:

Code: Select all

\\D:\home\documents\music\Diablo Swing Orchestra\Diablo Swing Orchestra - Butcher's Ballroom - 01 - Balrog Boogie.mp3
Here's the Location field for the same mp3 file when dragged into the Playlist directly (ie. not via m3u):

Code: Select all

D:\home\documents\music\Diablo Swing Orchestra\Diablo Swing Orchestra - Butcher's Ballroom - 01 - Balrog Boogie.mp3
You might think that I could manually fix the playback of tracks brought into the Playlist via m3u by simply deleting that "\\" prefix directly in the Location fields, but you'd be wrong. If I try, I still get this sort of thing in Errors when attempting to playback the repaired entry in Playlist:

Code: Select all

File reading failed: VLC could not open the file "\\D:\home\documents\music\Diablo Swing Orchestra\Diablo Swing Orchestra - Butcher's Ballroom - 01 - Balrog Boogie.mp3". Your input can't be opened: VLC is unable to open the MRL 'file://D:\home\documents\music\Diablo Swing Orchestra\Diablo%20Swing%20Orchestra%20-%20Butcher%27s%20Ballroom%20-%2001%20-%20Balrog%20Boogie.mp3'. Check the log for details.
The corresponding snippet from Messages log with verbosity level 2:

Code: Select all

Obviously there's more to the broken m3u problem than simply what appears to be the path to the track files.

Half the reason I use VLC for music is for m3u playlists. The other half is streaming Internet radio using Shoutcast. Given the loss of both abilities, VLC 1.1.0 just became a downgrade to a video-only player :cry:

I found, by trial and error, that prefacing each file name with "file:///" makes the m3u file work. Unfortunately that breaks it for any other audio player.

Not a fix, but it is a work around.

thank you all for this analysis.
I too use vlc to play m3u playlists, which 1.1 cannot do.
I will downgrade to 1.0.5 now and wait until that issue is fixed.....

There aren't official 1.0.6 binaries for Win32.

Yep, broken here too, exactly the same way - Win7 x64, previously working ( in 1.0.5 ) m3u's now refuse to work with 1.1.0, with reports such as :

File reading failed:
VLC could not open the file "\\E:\Music\Led Zeppelin\Coda\01 We're Gonna Groove.flac".
Your input can't be opened:
VLC is unable to open the MRL 'file://E:\Music\Led Zeppelin\Coda\01%20We%27re%20Gonna%20Groove.flac'. Check the log for details.

The m3u contents ( generated by EAC ) in this case look like :

#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:158,Led Zeppelin - We're Gonna Groove
01 We're Gonna Groove.flac

Just double clicking on the .flac file itself plays just fine. But life is too short to double click on every file I want to listen to :).

Unfortunately I don't believe I can attach files here, or I'd attach the whole sysinternals Procmon log, but essentially it boils down to :

20:54:38.2225516 vlc.exe 4948 CreateFile C:\Windows\CSC\v2.0.6\namespace\E NAME NOT FOUND Desired Access: Read Attributes, Synchronize, Disposition: Open, Options: Synchronous IO Non-Alert, Non-Directory File, Complete If Oplocked, Attributes: n/a, ShareMode: Read, Write, Delete, AllocationSize: n/a 2860
20:54:38.2225892 vlc.exe 4948 QueryOpen \\E:\Music\Led Zeppelin\Physical Graffiti Disc 1\01 Custard Pie.flac FAST IO DISALLOWED 2861

There's nothing particularly remarkable here - as far as Windows is concerned, \\E:\Music\Led Zeppelin\Physical Graffiti Disc 1\ is *not* a valid network path.

When we look at the same log with 1.0.5 ( ignoring the RegOpenKey's which are a bit strange but not actually a problem... ), unremarkably again, we see that the '\\E:' is not present :

21:34:45.5628487 vlc.exe 1328 QueryOpen E:\Music\Led Zeppelin\Physical Graffiti Disc 1\01 Custard Pie.flac SUCCESS CreationTime: 24/12/2009 21:59:03, LastAccessTime: 28/12/2009 17:08:44, LastWriteTime: 24/12/2009 21:59:03, ChangeTime: 29/12/2009 02:05:18, AllocationSize: 28,909,568, EndOfFile: 28,908,616, FileAttributes: ANCI 7434

I'm suspicious of the attempt to use Windows\CSC, it suggests that perhaps everything is simply being treated as a network path by default.

No need to attach anything. We can replicate this and hopefully this will be fixed in 1.1.1

I've had a very quick look at the code.

Looks like we're passing through this bit of code in InputSourceInit :

/* XXX: very very ugly. Always true for valid URIs though. */
if( (psz_path - psz_dup) >= 2 && psz_path[-2] && psz_path[-1] )
{
*(--psz_path) = '\\';
*(--psz_path) = '\\';
}

Trouble is, we are starting with the MRL 'file://X:\y\z', because that's what FindPrefix() has given us. So input_SplitMRL gives us a psz_path of 'X:\y\z', but the ' psz_path[-2] && psz_path[-1]' test passes ( because input_SplitMRL has *only* nulled the ':' in the input string ). Therefore we 'add back' the "\\" to the path which was right to start with.

Of course, this could be gibberish, it was a very quick look !.

Well just downloaded ver1.1.10 and it still won't play all my m3u playlists. They do play fine in Winamp and Media Player. It's too bad cause I like VLC a lot but rely on my hundreds of playlist too much .. so back to Winamp for now

Mosrite, this issue was fixed, so you have playlists that have different kind of issues, could you share those playlist files to us?

Does it work better if you remove ..\ parts from playlist and move the actual playlist file to correct folder?

Still not fixed in 2.0.3.

Basic m3u: list of files
Winamp m3u: list of files with some #commentedlines
