VLC activex playlist

I'm looking for a vi to play a video using vlc activex. I have download the vi from here https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-24114 it only play a single video file. Now i want the vi to play a different video file using digital input trigger, when a digital 0 input is high it will play a video let say video A and when digital input 1 is high it stop the current video and play another video. How can i do that? any help would be very apreciated.

 

Thank you

Hey ijan,

 

I haven't had a chance to try it out yet, but what I'm assuming you would do is call the function libvlc_media_player_release with your call library function node when you want to release the media source you are currently using (Video A). You would then call libvlc_media_new_path with the path of the new video file you want to play (Video B). You could programatically implement this with a digital trigger in many different ways. What were you thinking of doing?
