MS9500GL HD FrEND Plus Chapter 12: Remote Control Protocols
ListPlaylist <string1>
Returns a list of the clips contained in the playlist identified by <string1>.
The player responds with a list of PlaylistEntry commands as follow:
PlaylistEntry <string1> <mediapath> <clip>
Where <string1> identifies a playlist, <string3> identifies a media clip located in the media path
identified by <string2>.
The list is terminated with an empty PlaylistEntry message.
Example:
PlaylistEntry “Left Screen” “/D:/Playlists” “Main screen intro.mpg”
PlaylistEntry “Left Screen” “/D:/Playlists” “Main screen L.mpg”
PlaylistEntry
Switchplaylist <Channel list> <string>
The player will perform a seamless switch to another playlist at the end of the currently playing clip.
The Player will respond with
OK or ERROR
Example:
Switchplaylist 1 “Playlistname”
Playrange <Channel list> <start chapter> < end chapter>
Sets the start and end chapters for a Playlist on the specified channel. This command will also pre-load the start
chapter in preparation for the Playlist command.
The Playrange command requires an amount of time to complete, because of some initialization that must occur
when a new file is selected. The status commands can be used to poll the player to find out when the playrange
command completes. If the HD Player is required to simply repeat-play the file (in a theater for example) it is
more efficient to use the “loop” command (see Loopon below).
The Player will respond with:
OK or ERROR
Fastseek <Channel list> <start chapter> <end chapter>
Seek to a new file in the playlist as quick as possible. This command should only be used if all files in the playlist
are the same format (resolution, frame rate, bit rate and PID’s):
OK “channel ‘X’ cued” or ERROR
