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