Python VLC – MediaList
In this article we will see how we can create a MediaList object in the python vlc module. VLC media player is a free and open-source portable cross-platform media player software and streaming media server developed by the VideoLAN project. MediaList object contains the multiple media, in other words it has list of media which can be used with MediaListPlayer object to play these multiple media object.
In order to do this we will use
vlc.MediaList
method with the vlc moduleSyntax : vlc.MediaList()

Return : It returns MediaList object
Below is the implementation
# importing vlc module import vlc # importing time module import time # creating a media player object media_player = vlc.MediaListPlayer() # creating Instance class object player = vlc.Instance() # creating a media list object media_list = vlc.MediaList() # creating a new media media = player.media_new( "death_note.mkv" ) # adding media to media list media_list.add_media(media) # setting media list to the media player media_player.set_media_list(media_list) # start playing video media_player.play() # wait so the video can be played for 5 seconds # irrespective for length of video time.sleep( 5 ) |

Another example
# importing vlc module import vlc # importing time module import time # creating a media player object media_player = vlc.MediaListPlayer() # creating Instance class object player = vlc.Instance() # creating a media list object media_list = vlc.MediaList() # creating a new media media = player.media_new( "1.mp4" ) # adding media to media list media_list.add_media(media) # setting media list to the media player media_player.set_media_list(media_list) # start playing video media_player.play() # wait so the video can be played for 5 seconds # irrespective for length of video time.sleep( 5 ) |
