Plugin works on Windows but not MacOS X

Hi,

I made a plugin to shuffle and loop a playlist once its played all items. It works fine on Windows, but on Mac OS X, the plugin loads and activate is called correctly, but none of the listeners are called and none of the dbg messages appear in the message log:

My code is here:

Code: Select all

function descriptor() return { title = "Shuffle Playlist", version = "1.1.3", shortdesc = "Shuffle Playlist", description = "Shuffles playlists once they are finished", author = "Jonathan Mackenzie", capabilities = {"input-listener", "playing-listener", "meta-listener"} } end function activate() vlc.playlist.loop('on') vlc.playlist.play() played = {vlc.playlist.current()} return true end function deactivate() vlc.playlist.loop('off') vlc.playlist.stop() vlc.deactivate() return true end function close() vlc.deactivate() end function meta_changed() -- related to capabilities={"meta-listener"} in descriptor() -- triggered by available media input meta data? local current = vlc.playlist.current() local input = vlc.object.input() local elapsed = vlc.var.get(input, "time") local total = vlc.var.get(input, "length") local diff = total - elapsed if diff <= 0 then local found = false for id,v in pairs(played) do if v == current then found = true end end if found then --if played[current] == true then played = {} vlc.playlist.sort("random") vlc.msg.dbg("[Shuffle] shuffling") else table.insert(played, current) local out = "" for id,v in pairs(played) do out = out ..v.. " " end vlc.msg.dbg("[Shuffle] Played: "..out) end end -- vlc.msg.dbg("[Shuffle] ".. elapsed.. "/".. total .. " diff= ".. tostring(total - elapsed)) end function input_changed() -- related to capabilities={"input-listener"} in descriptor() -- triggered by Start/Stop media input event end function playing_changed() -- vlc.msg.dbg("[Shuffle] playing changed to "..vlc.playlist.current()) end

It is possible. The Mac is always different. At least Windows and Linux use the same Qt GUI.
