[SOLVED] Delay between items in a playlist

Hi,
I'm using VLC media player 1.1.9 on ubntu 10.04 tls., and when i read my playlist, everything works fine.
But if i sout my playlist ( vlc --sout-keep --sout '#std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=127.0.0.1:50001/}' /tmp/pls.xspf ), there's a delay at the end of each files, on the client side only ...

Is there a way to stream multiple files without a delay between ?, i've tried enqueing with a --vlm-conf /tmp/vlm.conf but it results the same ...

Thanks for your time

You can use gather in fromt of std, but it will only work if all files use the same audio/video codecs.

Otherwise, a delay is unavoidable as the receiver needs to reinitialize its decoding pipelines.

Great, it works perfectly : vlc --loop --sout-keep --sout '#gather:std{access=http,mux=ts,dst=127.0.0.1:50001/}'

Thanks a lot
