Gapless playback from one continuous file with bookmarks
Posted: 20 Jun 2015 21:31
I have some very long live sets. I also have a lot of "bookmarks" for them. That is, from 00:00:00 to 00:30:00 is one part, from 00:30:00 to 01:00:00 is another part and so on... I found that using XSPF playlists I can have items which are parts of bigger files. For example
Unfortunately VLC doesn't play gaplessly. Since all "tracks" in the playlist are part of a single file, I suppose, the items should only tell VLC to seek to the correct position, not to open that file again and only then seek.
Code: Select all
<track>
