Media source playlist, how on flatpak?

[Nullifer]

Hello,

i've noticed the vlc media source is no longer available so i can't make a randomized video playlist for when i'm afk.
How can i do this for the flatpak version now on arch linux?
thanks

I am seeing the same issue. Moving from a Win11 stream-PC to Linux. I just installed Fedora Kinoite today and went to import my scenes and sources. No more VLC media source. It did work in Kubuntu on my test yesterday.

Which distro are you on Nullifier?

I guess the work around for now is making one big compilation video project and slamming new videos in from time to time and just play that one video file. I do hope we can get VLC media source soon.

Let me know if you find a solution please. Good luck.

I have reinstalled Kubuntu and yep - confirmed VLC media source is there and working fine. Looks like it might not be supported in Wayland currently.

to clarify (you probably know this already) - if I install from flatpak - VLC media source is missing but if I install through apt (31.1.3) VLC media source is working fine. YMMV.
