Repeat Parameter Commandline

[igamer88]

Hey,
I have a problem with the repeat parameter.

-R, --repeat, --no-repeat Repeat current item (default disabled)
VLC will keep playing the current playlist item. (default disabled)

I want to repeat only a specific playlist item.

ption An option that only applies to the stream directly before it
and that overrides previous settings.

My Playlist:
screenSaver.mov
movie.mov

I tried to start vlc with this command (Java code):

Code: Select all

Runtime.getRuntime().exec(new String[]{"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\VideoLAN\\VLC\\vlc.exe", "--fullscreen", "--quiet", screenSaverFile.getAbsolutePath(), presentationFile.getAbsolutePath(), ":repeat"});

or from windows command line (the same command like above)

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" --fullscreen --quiet C:\screenSaver.mov C:\movie.mov :repeat

vlc shows the movies, but do NOT repeat the presentationFile.

Please help me

I have found a solution by myself.

In place of repeat you can write :input-repeat=-1

Same effect!
