Videos not adding to playlist as expected | Windows 11

[isaacy13]

Howdy all,

I'm running into an issue where calling player.add(Media(...)) isn't adding the media to the playlist, despite no error being thrown in .onError

• media_kit 1.1.10
• media_kit_video 1.2.4
• media_kit_libs_video 1.0.4

** was previously using older versions of library & running into same issue, updating to latest did not resolve behavior

Repo steps:

• await player.open(Playlist([Media(...)]), play: true)
• await player.add(Media(...))
• await player.add(Media(...))
• await player.add(Media(...))
• Even though .onError will not be called & .then will execute, the playlist will only have 3 items

Notes:

• in my actual code, I'm limited to two items -- so # of videos don't seem to be issue
• if you change order you open videos (e.g.: D, C, B, A instead of A, B, C, D) this behavior still occurs -- so issues don't seem to be with video files

Repro code

• in this example, video C is omitted from playlist
• playlist contents are [A, B, D]

--- main.dart

void main(List<String> args) {
   MediaKit.ensureInitialized();
   runApp(ReproApp);
}

--- repro_app.dart

can you provide logs?

 player =
        Player(configuration: PlayerConfiguration(logLevel: MPVLogLevel.debug));
    player.stream.log.listen((event) {
      print("log $event");
    });

just incase its a problem with mpv

Ah yeah, looks like path character issue (emojis and/or apostrophes)

• first video with apostrophe worked, but second video with apostrophes in path had fatal error
• confirmed removing special characters fixed issue

nice, glad it got fixed

Any chance there'd be plans to support files with special characters in them? (e.g.: apostrophes, emojis, etc.)
