Will their ever fix the infinite loop you get when you open a broken file and VLC just try to read the 1-file playlist indefinitely and the UI gets stuck forever ?
- rom1v 7y agoDefinitely, we are aware of this stupid behavior, it will be fixed (at the latest) in 4.0.
- ttoinou 7y agoMerci Romain pour tout ce taf :)
- rom1v 7y agoI just proposed a patch to fix the problem on VLC 3: https://mailman.videolan.org/pipermail/vlc-devel/2019-May/124882.html https://mailman.videolan.org/pipermail/vlc-devel/2019-May/12... (proposed != merged)
- ttoinou 7y agoInstead, wait some delay before starting the next item, depending on the number of consecutive errors That's smart ! What if I have two items on the playlist that both fails, is it going to remember the number of consecutive errors ?
- rom1v 7y ago> What if I have two items on the playlist that both fails, is it going to remember the number of consecutive errors ? Yes, it will, the counter is reset only on successful playback.
- rom1v 7y agoAnd actually Thomas already implemented it in VLC 4: https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc/blob/f93fef718c3c61e2e4f5f9438d2e7f534e35bff9/src/input/player.c#L899 https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc/blob/f93fef718c3c61e2... \o/ (we discussed about it, I didn't remember he already did it)
- rom1v 7y agoMerged: http://git.videolan.org/gitweb.cgi/vlc/vlc-3.0.git/?p=vlc/vlc-3.0.git;a=commitdiff;h=d06622651fcd4a608c06cb35e725fad57bf38167 http://git.videolan.org/gitweb.cgi/vlc/vlc-3.0.git/?p=vlc/vl... So it's fixed in the next release (VLC 3.0.7).
