Hello! I really like the program and it will be very useful for me. Unfortunately there is a problem with the durations of the elements. The elements are read, the playlist is being built correctly and everything seems fine but on random occasions (absolutely random - I cannot find a reason) an element is played with the duration of the previous element thus it is cut in the middle if longer, or repeated several times if shorter. I think that another fellow here ( #2 ) is having the same problem but playing around with item_duration which I do not use.
I am using VLC 3.0.6 on Windows 7. Here is mycode:
sources: - path: D:\FOLDER\S1 shuffle: true - path: D:\FOLDER\A1 shuffle: true - path: D:\FOLDER\C1 shuffle: true - path: D:\FOLDER\A2 shuffle: true - path: D:\FOLDER\B1 shuffle: true - path: D:\FOLDER\B2 shuffle: true - path: D:\FOLDER\R1 shuffle: true - path: D:\FOLDER\B3 shuffle: true - path: D:\FOLDER\A3 shuffle: true - path: D:\FOLDER\C2 shuffle: true - path: D:\FOLDER\A4 shuffle: true - path: D:\FOLDER\B4 shuffle: true - path: D:\FOLDER\R2 shuffle: true - path: D:\FOLDER\A5 shuffle: true - path: D:\FOLDER\D1 shuffle: true - path: D:\FOLDER\C3 shuffle: true - path: D:\FOLDER\A6 shuffle: true - path: D:\FOLDER\B5 shuffle: true - path: D:\FOLDER\F1 shuffle: true

@EugeneDae Thanks for the answer. I was testing with different kind of video files and came to the conclussion that VERY different duration files bug the script. For example I play music videos (around 3:30 min each) but when a bumper - a short file around 0:10 min - came along OR a very long music video - around 5 or 5:30) it is configured to be played with the duration of the previous file. Then everything plays all right until again a very long or a very short element come along. Hope this will helps figuring out the problem.
