[vlc] Too many open files with vlc

[Jose Maria Fontanillo]

	Hello

	I have a continuous transmision of several clips using multicast. I use a commmand line 
like this:

vlc --intf dummy --extraintf http,telnet --ttl 127 listado.m3u 
--sout='#duplicate{dst=std{access=udp,mux=ts,url=224.31.12.100}}' --loop

And listado.m3u is like this:

file:///home2/videos/video1.mpg
dvd:///home2/videos/dvd1/
dvd:///home2/videos/dvd2/
...
etc

	It works pretty good, but after some hours the vlc stop working and the console ouput 
many times the message:

[00239841] access_file access error: cannot open file /home2/videos/todos.es.mpg (Too many 
open files)
[00239829] main input error: no suitable access module for `file:///home2/videos/video1.mpg'

	If I use the linux /usr/sbin/lsof command I see that the file descriptors are not 
release, and when the limit is reach the vlc stop working.

	Do you know some idea about how workaround this problem?

Thanks in advance
Fonta
