hi,
I have several quicktime files (.mov) that do not containt the actual video but refer to another movie file elsewhere in the directory structure. Is VLC able to resolve the link and play the actual file?

thanks!

hi,
I have exported a movie into a series of images using :vout=image; I edited some of the images. Now I want to combine all images back into a movie. Is that possible with vlc .. ?

Thanks!!

Thanks; it helped a lot!

It doesnt work that way with ver 0.8.2 though, but works fine with 0.8.4 (I upgraded).

hi, thanks for that pointer; I am still facing a problem while executing the last step - I have executed the make command to build vlc: gcc -Wsign-compare -Wall -pipe -o libscreen_plugin.so -shared -fpic -fPIC -u vlc_entry__0_8_5 libscreen_plugin.a -L/usr/local/lib -lpthread -lX11 -lXext /usr/bin/ld...

This problem is sloved; The solution is to use quotes generously like this:

CMD="vlc -I dummy --sout=""#transcode{vcodec=mp4v, acodec=mp4a}:std{access=file, mux=mp4, url=file.mp4}"" $SRC_FILE"

and then execute CMD; I just put

$CMD

in the shell script to exec it;

hi, I am having a bit of problem with vlc:quit at the end of command line. My command line is like this: $ vlc -I dummy --sout="#transcode{vcodec=WMV2,acodec=mpga}:std{access=file,mux=asf,url=temp.asf}" videos/temp.mpg vlc:quit VLC media player 0.8.2-svn Janus [00000246] main playlist: add...

yeah, I tried that; VLC is adding vlc:quit to its play list! maybe I dont have the latest version (my version is 0.8.2-svn Janus)

hi, I am having a hard time executing a shell script line like this: `vlc file.avi -I dummy --sout='#transcode{vcodec=mp4v, acodec=mp4a}:std{access=file, mux=mp4, url=file.mp4}' ` (i.e a transcoder in back-quotes) this simply wil not work with bash; vlc is adding file.avi, url=file.mp4 and many sust...

hi, I am trying to transcode a few videos (in batch mode) using a command like: vlc file.avi -I dummy --sout='#transcode{vcodec=mp4v, acodec=mp4a}:std{access=file, mux=mp4, url=file.mp4}' I need two things here: 1. vlc 0.8.2 (obtained from from Debain stable) is giving me an error for the audio code...

Thanks a lot! that really helps!
