Playlist in vu+solo2?

[kalpikos]

Hello my friends

I have a vu+solo2 with openpli4 image and installed in it a 1TB HDD where I save my recordings, my video clips and my movies.

I was wondering if it's possible to create a playlist with my favorites videos from my HDD in order to be played by the sequence that I want.
Is it possible?

... more specific ... ?

... yesss indeed ,

~ but on the script way of life ... ~

here it is:

# -- scan your finename tree:
cd /media/mydisk
find /media/mydisk -type f > f.l

# -- grep your favorites:
grep music f.l
grep music f.l  > a.m3u ; cat a.m3u
vlc a.m3u &

# -- auto
for aa in  music film genre foot ; do
    grep $aa f.l > $aa.m3u
    done
chmod 755 *m3u

# -- play
vlc /media/mydisk/music.m3u &

enjoy

Thanks @aplok

But it's very difficult for me to use a script for this job.
Moreover I don't use vlc player but the build-in player of openpli image.

Is there any other easy way for creating playlist?

hello,

- vlc is just an example of media player,
it can be any media player you want: mplayer ...

the important thing is the file.m3u
which is a basic text file with the path and the filename of the media

- for the script, i must tell you this is the simpliest way to do this job
also. i can tell you anything else, i mean any recipy with vlc, or mplayer
just because i do not know other way to make a m3u file
rather than just as the command i give you here above:

grep queen f.l > queen.m3u

that's it !

and what about thinin 6 monts, when some files will be moved
from one dir to another dir ...

if you have the command: no problemo at all --- you are free

i suggest you to practise once, just to try, and than, after just decide:

telnet satbox
root
secreto

cd /tmp
find /mnt/media > f.l
grep geneis f.l > genesis.m3u

that'it
