Manually setting video output module

Postby coldfire » 12 Aug 2008 09:50

How to set in the code that I want to use only glx or x11 or any other module?

i think the command line option is

vlc --module <module-name>

module-name can be x11,glx, xvideo

But I need to set it manually in the code ?
Good one What is H264?

the bruteforce (and easy) solution is to remove all the .so of the video output module you don't want

the eleguant solution is to go where module_Need("video output", "any") is called and replace any with your module (note: fonction prototype from the top of my head i'm not sure of the numer and order of the arguments)

another solution is to increase a lot the score of the vout module you want to use
