Media is played for duration of previous file

[pavelmarko]

It's not easy to put it down in words, but this is what I mean:

Notice how the second and third time 5_Sec_video.mp4 is played, the duration remains at 11 second.

By changing the sleep time from 0.25 to 1 in

vlcscheduler.py
if play_duration == 0: await asyncio.sleep(0.25) play_duration = player.status().get('length', 0)

This issue seems to be solved (play duration matches file duration)

PS: First I tried asyncio.sleep(0.5) but the issue still occurred, although not as frequently

Thanks. This seems to be a very common issue among Windows users of VLC Scheduler. I guess I should make sleep duration a setting.

I'm having this same issue on MacOS (HighSierra)
