Broken pipe error when try playing YouTube playlist
I wrote y bash script that opens YouTube playlist using youtube-dl and VLC applications: the output of youtube-dl is the input of VLC. The only problem is VLC needs to be closed after each playlist item unless I get the error message of the operating system: "ERROR: unable to write data: [Errno 32] Broken pipe". I understand the reason but I don't know how to resolve it: it is possible to close previous STDIN of VLC without killing the entire VLC process so that a new youtube-dl instance can connect to the same VLC instance? In short this is my question. The problem is detailed here: Downloading and playing videos and subtitles.
