VLC 1.1 Remote Control video-x and video-y

[jpspereira]

I have instaled the new VLC 1.1. I'm a developer and I'm using RC and Telnet interface. In older versions my java app can control vlc video-x and video-y in telnet remote control, but with version 1.1, if video-x or video-y are equal to zero... VLC assume they are both zero, if they are both diferent zero works well.
Any ideas?

I was having the same problem using LibVLC. I'm running on two different machines and one worked normally, the other didn't. Both are running Windows 7, with VLC 1.1.0.

I'm opening multiple videos, each in it's own monitor, and using the following code to position the windows, where win is the index of the video/monitor.

LibVlc.libvlc_media_add_option( media.Handle, ":video-x=" + Screen.AllScreens[win].Bounds.Left.ToString() );
LibVlc.libvlc_media_add_option( media.Handle, ":video-y=" + Screen.AllScreens[win].Bounds.Top.ToString() );

This worked on one of my systems, but on the other any windows not positioned a (0,0) would not be displayed. They would show up when I alt-tab, and I can select them, but they were no-where to be seen.

Bounds.Top was always 0, and when I hardcoded video-y=1 for all the windows, they all show up on the correct monitor.

This isn't any issue for me, as I'm just fullscreening anyway, but the first post helped me, and I thought the extra info might be helpful.
