42 * VLC playlist control interface
44 * The VLC playlist system has a tree structure. This allows advanced
45 * categorization, like for SAP streams (which are grouped by "sap groups").
47 * The base structure for all playlist operations is the input_item_t. This
48 * contains all information needed to play a stream and get info, ie, mostly,
49 * mrl and metadata. This structure contains a unique i_id field. ids are
50 * not recycled when an item is destroyed.
52 * Input items are not used directly, but through playlist items.
53 * The playlist items are themselves in a tree structure. They only contain
54 * a link to the input item, a unique id and a few flags. the playlist
55 * item id is NOT the same as the input item id.
56 * Several playlist items can be attached to a single input item. The input
57 * item is refcounted and is automatically destroyed when it is not used
60 * The top-level items are the main media sources and include:
61 * playlist, media library, SAP, Shoutcast, devices, ...
63 * It is envisioned that a third tree will appear: VLM, but it's not done yet
65 * The playlist also stores, for utility purposes, an array of all input
66 * items, an array of all playlist items and an array of all playlist items
67 * and nodes (both are represented by the same structure).
69 * So, here is an example:
72 * - input 1 -> name = foo 1 uri = ...
73 * - input 2 -> name = foo 2 uri = ...
78 * - foo 2 (id 6 - input 2)
79 * - media library (id 2)
80 * - foo 1 (id 5 - input 1)
83 * Sometimes, an item creates subitems. This happens for the directory access
84 * for example. In that case, if the item is under the "playlist" top-level item
85 * and playlist is configured to be flat then the item will be deleted and
86 * replaced with new subitems. If the item is under another top-level item, it
87 * will be transformed to a node and removed from the list of all items without
90 * For "standard" item addition, you can use playlist_Add, playlist_AddExt
91 * (more options) or playlist_AddInput if you already created your input
92 * item. This will add the item at the root of "Playlist" or of "Media library"
93 * in each of the two trees.
95 * You can create nodes with playlist_NodeCreate and can create items from
96 * existing input items to be placed under any node with playlist_NodeAddInput.
98 * To delete an item, use playlist_DeleteFromInput( p_item ) which will
99 * remove all occurrences of the input.
102 * The playlist defines the following event variables:
104 * - "item-change": It will contain the input_item_t->i_id of a changed input
105 * item monitored by the playlist.
108 * - "playlist-item-append": It will contain a pointer to a playlist_add_t.
109 * - "playlist-item-deleted": It will contain the playlist_item_t->i_id of a
110 * deleted playlist_item_t.
112 * - "leaf-to-parent": It will contain the playlist_item_t->i_id of an item that is transformed
115 * The playlist contains rate-variable which is propagated to current input if available
116 * also rate-slower/rate-faster is in use
118 * \warning Be really carefull, playlist_item_t->i_id and input_item_t->i_id
119 * are not the same. Yes, the situation is pretty bad.
