Add custom columns to the playlist interface and feed it.
Posted: 14 Nov 2013 23:09
Hello everyone.
I just recently recognized, that vlc ships with a lua api. Since i used this a lot with the awesome window manager. I am wondering, whether the thing in my mind is possible with it or not.
I want to add a column to the playlist view in addition to the existend columns artist, title, length etc. Then i want to parse data from the filename in there
for each track, so the sorting and all this stuff is possible.
So my question is:
Is this possible to do with the lua script extension and if yes can you point out a short road map ( I can code myself
)
If not, maybe you have an idea how to do it in another way
thx for this massive piece of software
peace
