VLC doesn't create log file

Postby krause » 29 Aug 2008 13:47

When I configure VLC media player in Settings/Preferences/Advanced/Logging to create a log file it doesn't. Is this a known problem and is there a solution to this?

Does logger work any better?
--verbose 2 --extraintf logger

hhm.... sorry, I don't get it I guess. There is a liblogger_plugin.dll wich resides in my plugins directory but I don't get it how to use it. I guess I need to tie it to the vlc.exe somehow?

Start VLC from command line, or make .bat file that starts VLC with that option.

Code: Select all

vlc.exe --verbose 2 --extraintf logger
