i'm facing some problems using libvlc with C.
Adding a media using "libvlc_media_list_add_media" and starting playback using "libvlc_media_list_player_play", when the media finish playing my program hangs if i try to play again.
I've compressed my code into this source to reproduce the problem:
after the first media the time fprintf stop displaying and the program hangs somewhere into the while...
do i have to handle some events? is something missing or wrong?
