hi,
i'm currently developing an application for a project where i use lib-xine
(which is really great btw). however, i encountered one strange behaviour.
background: i need to know the length of a stream actually before i play
it to do some calculations. so if the streams provides a length i'd like to
know it. everything works fine when i open the mrl for the first time and
then ask using get_pos_length for the stream length. but when i open the
stream for the second time (after closing it of course) i alwass get 0 as
length and the correct length is not reported until i started playing the
stream.
some pseudo code:
loop:
xine_open("file.mp3");
xine_get_pos_len(); <-- in the first loop returns correct information,
afterwards it's 0
... do some calculations with length
xine_play();
... wait till finished playing
xine_close();
goto loop
i'm a little bit stuck here since i don't know how to get the length
before starting to play. i'm going to cache the length for now, but i feel
this is not the perfect way to go. so maybe someone know anything that
helps; maybe it's even a bug - i don't know, but i'd like to ;)
thanks and regards,
frank
