If it is a problem in your program generating the code for the loop then it would be off topic here and I am trying to encourage you to find out if the problem is with VLC or with your code. If you can reproduce the problem on the command line away from Python then it is on topic here. As an absolute minimum having command line output or errors, if any, might be useful. | |
| May 3, 2021 at 20:14 | comment | added | Jitin | the first command starts the vlc player, second one adds the track to the playlist. But that's okay, the issue is when I run the loop, instead of adding all the tracks in one go. It adds ONLY one track and then waits for me to close the vlc window. It blocks the CLI... | |
