libvlc : AudioCD not working with libvlc_media_new_location

[deepars84]

Hello ,

I am trying to play AudioCD with libvlc_media_new_location(); Debug log shows successful decoding of Audio tracks,
But it doesn't play any track.

I have used sample/example code.
It seems i am missing something? Do i need to manage playlist? or libvlc_media_new_location should take care playing track automatically like in DVD/Bluray media Disc?

Kindly help !!.

Thanks in advance

This looks like an I/O error. Does the disc play properly on the computer at all? Starting from the first track?

Thanks for quick reply,

When i use standard VLC player everything is fine, it plays from 1'st track too.
am i missing something? like should i manage playlist? libvlc_media_new_location should be OK ??

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

Yes, your way seems correct, since it actually opens correct the CD.

[Rémi Denis-Courmont]

You need a list player to open the "whole" Audio CD.

Thanks for suggestion.
I got it working with libvlc_media_add_option(vlcMedia,":cdda-track=1"); it plays first track .
As suggested by Rémi i couldn't get playlist working, following code doesn't yeild desired result.

QString mrl = "cdda:///D:/";
libvlc_media_t *vlcMedia = libvlc_media_new_location(vlcInstance, qtu(mrl));

vlcMediaList = libvlc_media_list_new(vlcInstance);
libvlc_media_list_add_media(vlcMediaList,vlcMedia);
vlcMediaListPlayer = libvlc_media_list_player_new (vlcInstance);
libvlc_media_list_player_set_media_list(vlcMediaListPlayer,vlcMediaList);
libvlc_media_list_player_next(vlcMediaListPlayer);

libvlc_media_list_player_play (vlcMediaListPlayer);

I think i need some more API calls to populate playlist from "Audio CD" ? let me know if you have some suggestion.

Got it Working !! Thanks, @ Kevin Hoang, @sherington

Code: Select all

//section -1 libvlc_media_t *vlcMedia = libvlc_media_new_location(vlcInstance, qtu(fileOpen)); /* Create a new libvlc player */ libvlc_media_parse(vlcMedia); vlcPlayer = libvlc_media_player_new_from_media (vlcMedia); /* Release the media */ libvlc_media_release(vlcMedia); libvlc_media_player_play (vlcPlayer);

call following on error from play, or call sleep (10) which is very bad idea, but it works!

Code: Select all

//section -2 pMediaList = libvlc_media_subitems(vlcMedia); libvlc_media_list_player_t *pListplayer = libvlc_media_list_player_new(vlcInstance); libvlc_media_list_player_set_media_list(pListplayer,pMediaList); libvlc_media_list_player_play(pListplayer);

Oh boy. We should fixed VLC/Audio CD.
