Playlist in streaming : break between sequences

Hello,
I'm trying to make a streaming server with VLC on Debian Etch (only command line, no GUI) and I use this command to start a HTTP server which send the playlist :

Code: Select all

vlc liste.mu3 --sout '#standard{access=http, mux=ts, dst=192.168.2.3:8080}' -I http --http-host 192.168.2.3:8082
But when it passes at the next sequence of the list, the client stop and we must push play to see the next sequence. Is there a way of not having this break and just continue the playlist ?

I've another problem, less serious : how to stop the VLC instance after the end of the playlist ?

Thanks

PS : I'm sorry if the question was already asked, I speak french and it's not easy on an English forum for me to find something.

Hi Rapha222!

I asked the very same question some weeks ago and still don't have an answer: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=46170 I saw some other question on the same subject in this forum. And I've even found some answer in the Wiki: http://wiki.videolan.org/Common_Problem ... working.29 If it helps you - please post here the exact command line or VLM command that worked for you (without "plapla" and "etc"). I wonder wether it can be dune without on-the-fly transcoding...

Your second question is easy. Just put "vlc:quit" at the end of the playlist or in the command line like this:

Code: Select all

vlc playlist.m3u vlc:quit ...
P.S.: I'm from Russia, English isn't my native language as well, and that sucks! :)

Thanks,
I've been started the streaming server like I wanted with your solution (I'm not in a VLM put with the VLC command) :D :

Code: Select all

vlc liste.mu3 --sout-keep --sout '#standard{access=http, mux=ts, dst=192.168.2.3:8080}' -I http --http-host 192.168.2.3:8082
(I've tryed with the geather option/module, but it not work)

Put vlc:end at the end of my playlist solve my other problem :)

Thanks ;)
