#7989: MediaPlayer needs play video/audio URL and shuffle features. ---------------------------------------+------------------------- Reporter: ddavid123 | Owner: nobody Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: Audio & Video | Version: R1/alpha3 Keywords: MediaPlayer, Shuffle, URL | Blocked By: Blocking: | Has a Patch: 0 Platform: All | ---------------------------------------+------------------------- I love Haiku's MediaPlayer, it is an awesome app! I have noticed two features that are missing that I think should be implemented for R1. In VLc and other media players, there is the option to play audio/video from the URL. Instead of downloading the entire media file, VLC just plays it directly from URL. Another feature that many media players have that Haiku's MediaPlayer doesn't is the option to shuffle the videos/music that are played! Instead of playing them in order, the shuffle feature may play song/video three first, then perhaps 8. Songs/videos are played out of order. Although these features are not critical to the release of Haiku R1, they are important for many like me who have become accustomed and even dependent on them! -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/7989> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
