The VideoLAN Forums

I am using the rc interface of vlc 0.8.4-test1. When I add something to the playlist, it automatically switches to the newly added thing. If the thing added is a video clip, it would also pop up the video window. Is there a way that I can add something to the playlist without switching/displaying it using the rc interface.

Thanks.

Hello,

This is not possible at the moment.

I think the behaviour should be changed (remove PLAYLIST_GO). What do you think ?

I took out the PLAYLIST_GO (used to be PLAYLIST_GO|PLAYLIST_APPEND) from the "add" code in modules/control/rc.c, recompiled and that did the trick.

Thanks for the suggestion.
