[SOLVED] PotPlayer command line - open new video in same window

[nitzi]

How can I open a video in the same window as a currently playing video, so that it stops the currently playing video and starts this new one, through the command line?
I already tried `potplayer.exe "filename" /same` and that didn't work.

that's the default behavior if you set general-multiple instances-disable(play files in existing...). "potplayer.exe filename /new" opens a new instance ignoring the multiple instance option. /same switch seems irrelevant to this thing

[nitzi]

So if i have multiple instances enabled there's no way to open up a new video within the same window as an already playing video through the command line?

it looks like it. there seems to be no such option.

Do you know if there's a ctrl+v command? Cuz if I control v a link into potplayer it right away stops the already playing video and starts playing the new link

[yonta]

hey, i talked to the developer and he's gonna add a switch which does the job you want. try potplayer filename /current in the next dev build.
