Add playlist items using command line?

Postby 0001001 » 20 Mar 2008 11:02

Hi,

is it possible to add new items to the playlist using the command line while VLC is already playing?
Thanks in advance!

you could add with http interface for example :

Code: Select all

wget http://localhost:8080/requests/status.xml?command=in_enqueue&input=%2Fvideos%2Ftest_rambo.mpeg

That is a possibility, thanks!

If this is possible, adding things via commandline should be too, shoudn't it?
