[LINUX] External video players and stacked video files
#1
Hello,

On my system, totem plays like crap. Messing around with gstreamer settings has not helped me. So I use VLC with great results for ALL video playback.

Now there's one slight problem with using playercorefactory.xml and setting VLC. When I play a stacked video, i.e. X.part 1.avi, X.part 2.avi. Only the first item in the stack is sent to VLC and when the 1st part is finished, xbmc comes back and the 2nd part never plays.

So the command XBMC send is "/usr/bin/vlc "{1}" -f --play-and-exit". Where "{1}" is the location of the first video.

Is there a way to get XBMC to send both files?

Right now, instead of loading VLC directly, I have a bash script loading which then checks for additional file types, then sends all of them to VLC... :/ This doesn't seem like the best way to do this... any suggestions?
