Send-action and multiple instance

Postby nivpms » Mon Oct 05, 2015 8:25 am

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to control SMPlayer from command line and when I'm using, for example, "-send-action pause" parameter with a SMPlayer already launch, it open a new instance SMPlayer without pausing the oher SMPlayer instance and without an error.
I'm using SMPlayer v15.9.0 on Lubuntu 14.04 and with multiple instance option enabled. With this option disabled, it works fine but I really need this option enabled.

Is it a bug ?

I'm afraid communication with another instance is only possible when the option to use only one instance is enabled.

Version 15.9 has support for MPRIS2, maybe it can be used to send simple orders to smplayer even when using several instances.
