Loop a single track/element in a XSPF playlist using VLC

I've googled a lot, but I haven't found a solution yet.

Is it possible to loop a single track in the XSPF playlist?

In terms of a pause, we can do it in a xspf playlist as follows:

<track>

   <location>vlc://pause:10</location>

   <extension application="http://www.videolan.org/vlc/playlist/0">

     <vlc:id>1</vlc:id>

   </extension>

</track>

Is there anything similar to loop a track?

With CLI VLC it is possible to loop a given number of times:

cvlc Example.mp4 :input-repeat=3

So I think it can be done using a XSPF playlist.

Please someone enlighten me with wisdom and knowledge to accomplish this task.

And the trick is

for infinit loop:

<vlc:option>input-repeat=-1</vlc:option>

To repeat 3x

<vlc:option>input-repeat=3</vlc:option>

just like the command line...

Many months later, the answer has finally arrived =D THANKS!!!! Just one clarification: input-repeat=3 will repeat the track FOUR times, not three. So to repeat a track three times we use 2. Thanks for your help =D =)

So, for the 2018 year you cannot add the negative value of "input-repeat" to the XSPF playlist. Your string must look like <vlc:option>input-repeat=65545</vlc:option> References to the issue - github.com/ZeBobo5/Vlc.DotNet/issues/96

Some VLC playlist options:

--repeat repeats current item until another item is forced

--play-and-stop stops the playlist after each played item.

So maybe try adding: <vlc:option>repeat</vlc:option>

Mmm... Sadly no, it won't repeat that way =/ But your answer seems useful, thanks! I'll read more, maybe I'll get something! Let's wait another answer in hopes someone else knows the exact way to do this =) Thanks ;)

I've read but the specification says those options you mention are for playlists indeed but they're not applied as vlc:options like stop-time=55 Those are for tracks. But the playlist ones are only used in a command line code =

Wiki lists this as a way to set an option (within the extension data element): <vlc:option>stop-time=55</vlc:option>.

Some VLC playlist options:

--random plays files randomly forever.

--loop loops playlist on end.

--repeat repeats current item until another item is forced

--play-and-stop stops the playlist after each played item.

So maybe try adding: <vlc:option>repeat</vlc:option>
