UP!

VLC (64 bit v. 3.0.8 ) is receiving an rtp mp3 stream coming from ffmpeg on a linux device: this device is connected to my LAN with a PPTP tunnel over LTE connection. In VLC I'm listening several audio drops every n seconds (variable) with following messages (over and over): main warning: playback t...

OK,thanks. I have yet followed 'debian' section of https://wiki.videolan.org/UnixCompile but it didn't work! I don't remember the errors... (anytime I resolved some kind o dependency it told me there wan another unresolved one...) Then I gave up ;-( So I will try again in the next weeks, or I'll wai...

Hi, I am using a Raspberry Pi model B with Raspbian (but I can change to any suggested working distro). I'd like to have VLC 2.0.5 working. If I use sudo apt-get install vlc I can get vlc 2.0.3 (but it seems to have some issues with rtsp streams (it opens first frame and then freezes)). I removed it...

In you experience, what are the most precise-seeking file formats? I am transcoding live streams (audio and video) to files (using libvlc and sout option), so I can choose codec and container for my files; what is your advice about them? I absolutely need a good precision in seeking when I re-view t...

DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO START RECORDING IN THE MIDDILE OF THE STREAM ? I WANT THE EXCAT FEATURE AS THE ONE IN THE INSTALBLE PLAYER ??? As far as I know libVLC doesn't give us the possibility to start recording after the stream is started (though the player has a red-circled button that does it!!!)....

FYI: I took the easy way out and run command line arguments to vlc and then wait for a set amount of time and then tell the vlc window to close using sendmessage commands. At least i get my 10 seconds of video i wanted. Uhm... "sendmessage commands"... how do you do that? Do you brutally ...

any fix for this bug?

has nobody the same problem?

Is it a bug or what?

has it been solved in nightly builds?

ok, thank you for your wonderful job.

libvlc.dll is precious for developers!

ok, maybe I misunderstood the meaning of words "remote control". If I can't "control" my instance (created with libvlc.dll inside my vb.net application) using a remote control interface... what can I do with it? Can you show me, please, some examples (I don't need source code; a ...

Thank you,
I hope this limitation will be removed soon...

thanks
OK, it's not possible to simulate hotkeys press.
But I must observe that hotkeys don't work even if I press them on keyboard (I've enabled them with libvlc_video_set_key_input ).
Is there a bug or should I change something?

Why not? ehm... I don't mean libvlc_add_intf is useless in general, but, as far as I can understand, it's useless inside a VlcMediaPlayer instance that uses libvlc.dll (I mean inside an external application). I'll try to be clearer: in which scenarios can I use libvlc_add_intf? How can an extra inte...

Hi! I am developing an application in VB.net 2005 using libvlc.dll and following this article http://www.helyar.net/2009/libvlc-media-player-in-c/ (I updated it and modified it to work with vb.net and VLC 1.1.4; by the way: THANKS George Helyar!!!) I am able to have a VlcMediaPlayer instance inside ...

Hi! I'm using VLC 1.1.3 on WinXP sp3 I can open and view an rtsp stream (rtsp://...). Now I want to dump it to a file, without any demuxing. While viewing the stream, I tried to press 'shift+d' keys but nothing happened (and nothing appeared in messages (with verbosity level=2)). I also tried to ope...

Thanks!

Hi guys! I am using VLC media player 1.1.3 in WinXP sp3. I am able to connect and view a video network stream (rtsp://...); it simply works! Now I'd like to dump the network stream (as it is, without transcoding) to a file. I can record it pressing the record button or shift+r keys, but I cannot dum...

well... I think it would be "enough" to have a function that dumps the opened stream (or the file being played) to a file on the disc with a startRecord-stopRecord behaviour (that's what record button does, right?). I am thinking of something similar to libvlc_video_take_snapshot http://ww...

Hi all, libvlc.dll is wonderful. I'd like to replicate "VLC record button" behavior in my application: is there any function/procedure that calls something like "start record this stream to \path\to\filename.abc" and then "stop record this stream to \path\to\filename.abc&quo...

Give me one rtsp URL I can use to replicate this I cannot give you any URL since I use VLC to connect to my Axis cameras with private IP address, such as rtsp://username:password@192.168.0.28:554/mpeg4/media.amp/trackID=1?videocodec=mpeg4 This has always worked in past VLC versions (see above: &quo...

Hi, I'm experiencing a really annoying bug (I am a big VLC fan!!!). I'm using VLC 1.1.4 luggage for windows. I can successfully open a network video stream (rtsp://...). I can pause it and resume it but... when I click on STOP button VLC crashes immediately closing its window (this happens with diff...
