Instructions to code your own VLC Lua playlist script.
$Id$
See lua/README.txt for generic documentation about Lua usage in VLC.
Examples: See dailymotion.lua, googlevideo.lua, metacafe.lua, youbtube.lua
and youtube_homepage.lua .
VLC Lua playlist modules should define two functions:
* probe(): returns true if we want to handle the playlist in this script
* parse(): read the incoming data and return playlist item(s)
Playlist items use the same format as that expected in the
playlist.add() function (see general lua/README.txt)
VLC defines a global vlc object with the following members:
* vlc.path: the URL string (without the leading http:// or file:// element)
* vlc.access: the access used ("http" for http://, "file" for file://, etc.)
* vlc.peek( <int> ): return the first <int> characters from the playlist file.
* vlc.read( <int> ): read <int> characters from the playlist file.
THIS FUNCTION CANNOT BE USED IN probe().
* vlc.readline(): return a new line of playlist data on each call.
THIS FUNCTION CANNOT BE USED IN probe().
Available VLC specific Lua modules: msg and strings. See lua/README.txt.
