Enqueue Buffering #12

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Enqueueing a song in mplayer (or in vlc, I guess) should prebuffer the
songs data so that it does not have to buffer once the top song in the
queue is ready to play.

All the queuing issues should be fixed now.
I'm afraid that prebuffering is not possible with MPlayer.
When aboutToFinish() signal is received, I use the loadfile slave command from
MPlayer (see http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/tech/slave.txt) but I'm really not 
sure
that loadfile buffers the next song :/
