opening dvd via http interface fails unless dvd has already been opened using normal interface

    • Closed Issue created by ConfusedVorlon @ConfusedVorlon

    applies to Mac OS tested on 1.1.2 and 1.1.3 (nightly 15 Aug)

    1. use file/open disk to open a dvd from the normal interface

    2. close the dvd, clear the playlist

    3. send http interface command to open dvd

    http://192.168.1.180:8080/requests/status.xml?command=in_play&input=dvd%3A%2F%2FVolumes%2FSPELLBOUND

    (through the web interface, this is the same as entering dvd://Volumes/DvdName in the open-disk dialog)

    1. dvd opens correctly

    2. stop dvd, clear playlist

    3. eject dvd and then re-insert dvd

    4. send same command

    http://192.168.1.180:8080/requests/status.xml?command=in_play&input=dvd%3A%2F%2FVolumes%2FSPELLBOUND

    1. dvd fails to open

    mac console shows:

    org.videolan.vlc[3959] libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.10 for DVD access

    org.videolan.vlc[3959] libdvdread: Couldn't find device name.

    VLC log follows in comment.

    Summary: once vlc has opened the dvd through the normal interface then the dvd: or simpledvd: commands will work even if VLC is subsequently quit and restarted. However once the dvd is ejected and re-inserted, the dvd or simple dvd commands will not work again until the normal interface is used.

    To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information

      another point to note:

      even opening the dvd using the mac os dvd player will resolve the issue and allow vlc to open the dvd using the dvdsimple: command
