If you're still looking and if the "no playlist" approach is acceptable I'd suggest trying out ranger (an ncurses file manager with vim-like keybindings). It even supports video previews, though I don't think you can define a numerical order for selected files (without patching it). On Sun, Jan

The simplest way I can imagine is to link them into a directory temporarily and/or permanently with: mkdir playlist ln *some_glob_pattern* playlist Then use the vidir(1) program to edit the files to number them sequentially the way you want. Then you can either create a playlist and

While vlc is admittedly a bunch of crap, I have no real suggestion for a playlist editing player. you could wrap mpv with some playlist-managing DIY thing, though, as it does IPC but could as well be quit with SIGQUIT... What's the reasoning behind this question though, why do you need to edit

Ahoy! Does any have a recommendation for a video player that has a good playlist where files can easily be reordered? I'm getting tired of VLC causing X to crash (although it looks like it is exiting without actually crashing or aborting). So I don't really care how crappy it is, as long as it
