Hi
I'm trying to use VLC as a media player terminal. I'm starting VLC using the following command line.
vlc.exe -f --rc-quiet --no-video-title-show --intf="telnet" --telnet-host="localhost" --telnet-port=3223 --telnet-password="admin" --verbose="4" --file-logging --logfile="RemoteVlcLog.txt" --logmode="txt" --one-instance --playlist-enqueue --disable-screensaver --video-on-top --aspect-ratio="16:9"
Then I connect remotely using telnet and I execute the following commands:
new list01 broadcast loop enabled
setup list01 output #display
setup list01 option sout-keep
setup list01 input file:///c:\videos\video01.mpg
setup list01 input file:///c:\videos\video02.mpg
control list01 play
When I do this VLC crashes after playing the first video.
If I change my commands to:
new list01 broadcast loop enabled
setup list01 input file:///c:\videos\video01.mpg
setup list01 input file:///c:\videos\video02.mpg
control list01 play
Then it plays the 2 videos and start all over again in a loop just like expected.
The issue here is that VLC is not playing them continuously. When moving from one video to the next one it exits from fullscreen then goes back to fullscreen again.
I read several messages and threads about the same issue here and none of them had a solution to make VLC to keep playing without "breaking" between videos.
I guess there must be a solution to this because VLC is a great and powerful piece of work and has several amazing features. Does not seems to be possible that it does not have a approach to get all the videos playing in fullscreen "smoothly".
I appreciate any help.
Thank you
