I found outfit was my power saver settings that were interfering with
continuous playing. now I’ve got that sorted out.
have you had experience with ripping and burning cd’s using VLC? is it
accessible?
Thanks.

I bet it is the screensaver settings because I don't use those but I do seem to
remember when I had my macbook air I had this issue at one time. Don't remember
what I did about it.

Okay, this does work. Because it says "open file" when you do cmd-o, I didn't
realize this would work for folders.
Open vlc.
Do cmd-o.

I might be missing something here but thefts time I did that, opened a folder
from the menu it just opened as it would if I did command-down arrow and showed

I am not sure why VLC would crash.
To open a folder just highlight the folder and navigate to the open button.

well, I checked that so it wouldn’t keep p[laying the same songs over and over

yeah. that’s exactly what I did. I need to experiment with how to play them
once they’re saved now.

1. VLC stopping. I think this may be because you have a screensaver/energy
settings set up which will interfere with the playing of VLC. In my case I
addressed this by putting all these settings onto an hour rather than the

Hmmm, there just has to be a reason why it is stopping instead of continuing to
play; you shouldn't have to be manually moving it on to the nextsong. Maybe get
rid of the stop when done - probably not exact wording but i'm not looking at
it at the moment.

You want to save it as an extended m3u fall; it should end in .m3u. At least

No it does not matter. If you highlight the file and press return it will play
that file. If you highlight the folder and press return it will play the folder.

some of the folders I want to play have subfolders. what happened when I did

ok. sorry. I just saw this. I did have it set on random. I’ll try opening it
from the already created playlist and see if that helps any. there were several
different ways to save it. I hope I picked the right one. lol.

I did save the playlist right after I created it. I was asking about what might
be causing the player to stop often and to not really random very well. Thanks.

The cmd-o may work. The cmd-down-arrow does not appear to work if the folder
has subfolders and I believe this is why the Terminal is being used. It has
also already been discussed that once the folder is loaded a permanent playlist
can be created and then there would be no further need for Term
Hey, that's great! congrats on getting the commands in and working!
Hmmm, I have a lot of large folders within other folders and it doesn't stop

I have not really been following this thread but I am not sure why you are
having to use Terminal. There may be some reason you want O take the Terminal
route that I have not picked up on. however I do not have to use Terminal to

I got the terminal commands to work with VLC last night. it started playing
right away but it stopped often and I would have to tell it to go to the next
track. it staid stuck in the same album and wouldn’t wander around as I wanted
it to. it’s a pretty big folder probably 25 or more artists and
It doesn't matter what folder it is in as long as yu type the path correctly.
Yes, the names are case sensitive; you have to type them as they are.

do the capital letters make any difference? I’ve got a music folder that’s in
another folder because it was transferred into this computer from another one.
I could probably pick up the contents and move it into the music folder that’s
on this computer but it’s pretty large.

You can start with /Users (note the slash in front) but usually when you open
terminal you are in your home directory you can just start with the directory.
For instance from my home directory:
open -a /Applications/VLC.app Music/Classical
I made this up but this should give you an example.
