Bug#1009689: playlist recursive expansion not working
Package: vlc
Version: 3.0.17.3-1
Severity: normal
For details, see:
https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?p=480711
I have the same or similar issue again.
Setting the "Expand" behavior in the settings of Playlist does not fix it.
Command line like:
vlc --recursive expand audio
does not solve it either. It always opens the playlist in non-expanded
mode, which heavily influences the likelyhood of the song selection in
Shuffle mode (i.e. if you have many files in the top folder and then
another couple of folders with even more files inside, then it will keep
selecting songs in the main folder only, until it once hits a folder,
only then it is expanded and the content there gets a chance to be
played).
Best regards,
Eduard.
