[streaming] Playing a stream

[Marek Franke]

Hiho,

i've been playing around a little bit with vlc as a stream-server and it 
seems to work generally, except with a few problems/strange behaviours. 
At first I setup my server this way:

$ vlc --intf telnet --telnet-port 4999 --telnet-password *

After that I connect from my client via telnet and configure it:

 > new music broadcast loop enabled
 > setup music input /path/to/file_1.avi
...
 > setup music input /path/to/file_n.avi
 > setup music output #standard{access=http,mux=ogg,dst=homeserver:5000}
 > control music play
 > quit

After all I can watch my personnal music channel with this:

$ vlc http://homeserver:5000

Sound and video is OK, but when the 1st file is over, my client doesnt 
play the next file. I only get this output:

status change: ( new input: http://homeserver:5000 )
status change: ( audio volume: 256 )
status change: ( play state: 1 )
status change: ( stop state: 0 )
[00000246] main playlist: nothing to play

Then I need to press STRG+C and restart vlc with 'vlc 
http://homeserver:5000' again. Then vlc plays until the next file and 
everything is the same (STRG+C, restart etc). Is it possible to play 
everything in once, without pressing STRG+C and restarting vlc?

Thanks a lot,
Marek
