Re: [Bino-list] Playlist support

[Frédéric Devernay]

The playlist format for stereoscopic player is also a good option.
It allows to specify different formats for different videos, and some items may 
play in loop until you press "next track". This is very useful for 
presentations, or for film festivals: you can play a small movie in loop while 
you're explaining what's happening next.
