In this article we will see how we can get the total count of media in the MediaList object in the python vlc module. VLC media player is a free and open-source portable cross-platform media player software and streaming media server developed by the VideoLAN project. MediaList object contains the multiple media, in other words it has list of media which can be used with MediaListPlayer object to play these multiple media object. Multiple media can be added to the media list object with the help of add_media
method.
In order to do this we will use count
method with the MediaList object
Syntax : media_list.count()
Argument : It takes no argument
Return : It returns integer
Below is the implementation
import vlc
import time
media_player = vlc.MediaListPlayer()
player = vlc.Instance()
media_list = vlc.MediaList()
media = player.media_new( "death_note.mkv" )
media_list.add_media(media)
media = player.media_new( "1.mp4" )
media_list.add_media(media)
media_player.set_media_list(media_list)
media_player.play()
time.sleep( 5 )
value = media_list.count()
print (value)
