46 * \file
47 * This file contain structures and function prototypes related
48 * to the playlist in vlc
50 * \defgroup vlc_playlist Playlist
52 * The VLC playlist system has a tree structure. This allows advanced
53 * categorization, like for SAP streams (which are grouped by "sap groups").
55 * The base structure for all playlist operations is the input_item_t. This
56 * contains all information needed to play a stream and get info, ie, mostly,
57 * mrl and metadata. This structure contains a unique i_id field. ids are
58 * not recycled when an item is destroyed.
60 * Input items are not used directly, but through playlist items.
61 * The playlist items are themselves in a tree structure. They only contain
62 * a link to the input item, a unique id and a few flags. the playlist
63 * item id is NOT the same as the input item id.
64 * Several playlist items can be attached to a single input item. The input
65 * item is refcounted and is automatically destroyed when it is not used
66 * anymore.
68 * In the playlist itself, there are two trees, that should always be kept
69 * in sync. The "category" tree contains the whole tree structure with
70 * several levels, while the onelevel tree contains only one level :), ie
71 * it only contains "real" items, not nodes
72 * For example, if you open a directory, you will have
73 *\verbatim
74 * Category tree: Onelevel tree:
75 * Playlist Playlist
76 * - Dir - item1
77 * - Subdir - item2
78 * - item1
79 * - item2
80 *\endverbatim
81 * The top-level items of both tree are the same, and they are reproduced
82 * in the left-part of the playlist GUIs, they are the "sources" from the
83 * source selectors. Top-level items include: playlist, media library, SAP,
84 * Shoutcast, devices, ...
86 * It is envisioned that a third tree will appear: VLM, but it's not done yet
88 * The playlist also stores, for utility purposes, an array of all input
89 * items, an array of all playlist items and an array of all playlist items
90 * and nodes (both are represented by the same structure).
92 * So, here is an example:
93 * \verbatim
94 * Inputs array
95 * - input 1 -> name = foo 1 uri = ...
96 * - input 2 -> name = foo 2 uri = ...
98 * Category tree Onelevel tree
99 * - playlist (id 1) - playlist (id 3)
100 * - category 1 (id 2) - foo 2 (id 8 - input 2)
101 * - foo 2 (id 6 - input 2) - media library (id 4)
102 * - media library (id 2) - foo 1 (id6 - input 1)
103 * - foo 1 (id 5 - input 1)
104 * \endverbatim
105 * Sometimes, an item must be transformed to a node. This happens for the
106 * directory access for example. In that case, the item is removed from
107 * the onelevel tree, as it is not a real item anymore.
109 * For "standard" item addition, you can use playlist_Add, playlist_AddExt
110 * (more options) or playlist_AddInput if you already created your input
111 * item. This will add the item at the root of "Playlist" or of "Media library"
112 * in each of the two trees.
114 * If you want more control (like, adding the item as the child of a given
115 * node in the category tree, use playlist_BothAddInput. You'll have to provide
116 * the node in the category tree. The item will be added as a child of
117 * this node in the category tree, and as a child of the matching top-level
118 * node in the onelevel tree. (Nodes are created with playlist_NodeCreate)
120 * Generally speaking, playlist_NodeAddInput should not be used in newer code, it
121 * will maybe become useful again when we merge VLM;
123 * To delete an item, use playlist_DeleteFromInput( input_id ) which will
124 * remove all occurences of the input in both trees
126 * @{
