I have the following problem with the Gstreamer player gst123:
when I'm playing back folders gst123 does not play the files in alphabetical order. When I have my files ordered like this:
01.mp3
02.mp3
03.mp3
I would expect the player to play the files back in this order, which it doesn't. I also did not really grasp which order it is actually using. gst123 does have some options to not play in order:
-z, --shuffle
Shuffle playlist before playing.
-Z, --random
Play files in random order forever.
I'm not using any of these.
Does anyone know this problem or a way to fix it?
I'm using gst123 version: 0.3.3-1+b3
The gstreamer plugins that I'm using are:
gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly/testing,now 1.12.2-1 i386
gstreamer1.0-plugins-good/testing,now 1.12.2-1 i386
gstreamer1.0-plugins-base/testing,now 1.12.2-1 i386
gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad/testing,now 1.12.2-1 i386
for some reasons I was not able to playback MP3 after some upgrades so I also installed:
gstreamer1.0-fluendo-mp3
I'm using a:
Debian GNU/Linux buster/sid
Kernel: Linux 4.11.0-1-686-pae
ls -f
? If so it is probably just using the order that readdir() returns. A fix might be to list the files explicitly with directory/* – icarus Jul 27 '17 at 21:05
