Re: No way to redirect VLC debug output to file?

Could you at least state if output to file is broken in Android or if it is working and the problem is on my side?

Re: Compiling VLC 2.1.0 for Linux x64

Just switched to Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit and have the same error on a fresh system.

Did you find any solution for that?

Edit: Seems to be a bug in Ubuntu. Here is a workaround: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour ... bug/220935.

Re: No way to redirect VLC debug output to file?

To be more specific, vlc on android seems not to understand the options --logmode neither --logfile. In cmdline.c, when the list of possible options is created, neither of those two options is included. That's why, the call to vlc_getopt_long returns 63 (which is '?'). Let me know if you need more i...

Re: No way to redirect VLC debug output to file?

The problem is that config_LoadCmdLine returns -1 in libvlc.c:203.

Re: No way to redirect VLC debug output to file?

Unfortunately, that does not work. Adding the logfile option causes VLC to crash like this: 3964:11-13 11:28:53.093: V/VLC/LibVLC(7670): Initializing LibVLC 3965:11-13 11:28:53.124: D/VLC(7670): [0x56f15048]: main libvlc VLC media player - 2.1.0-git Rincewind 3966:11-13 11:28:53.124: D/VLC(7670): [0...

No way to redirect VLC debug output to file?

Hi,

I am trying to redirect VLC output to file on Android.
I do: vlc --file-logging --logfile /mnt/sdcard/VLCDebug/log.txt --log-verbose 2
However, it does not work.

Appreciate any hints!

Re: http stream with big delay

Did you try --clock-jitter=0? Not sure if it is relevant in your case but I think that without this option, the client might increase the size of the cache dynamically.

Dear all, I am using: vlc --verbose 2 --file-logging vlc.log --log-verbose 2 ... When I try to cut the output from a certain module by adding, e.g., --verbose-objects=-modulename, nothing happens. Am I using this parameter in a wrong way? I also tried, e.g., --verbose-objects=-access or --verbose-ob...

Re: Out-of-tree compilation agains VLC GIT

Thanks for your answer. Now I have a follow-up question. When I do pkg-config --libs vlc/src/vlc-plugin.pc (where vlc is the root of VLC GIT tree), I get -L/usr/local/lib -lvlccore . Is it expected behavior that I get this path with -L? Shouldn't I get a path to the libvlccore.so in vlc/src/.libs wi...

Re: Extend plugin path via command line

Ok, I see. That means that with VLC built from GIT there is no way to add a plugin from outside the tree, right?

Extend plugin path via command line

Is it possible to provide VLC an additional folder where to look for plugins via command line? Or even to provide a path to a specific plugin file? The only related options I found in the help output and in the forum are --plugin-path and --data-path but both seem to be deprecated.

Out-of-tree compilation agains VLC GIT

I would like to compile an access module out-of-tree but agains the latest VLC code from the GIT. Is it possible? One problem that I see in http://wiki.videolan.org/OutOfTreeCompile is that is depends on pkg-config to learn about the cflags and libs to be used but this approach does not work when I ...

Config file

Is there any location VLC checks for existence of a config file on Android?

I didn't find one so I added --config /path/to/file to input arguments of libVLC in libvlcjni.c, but VLC seems still not to read the file. What would be the right way to let VLC use a configuration file on Android?

Re: Command line or config file?

In fact, I was thinking about using a separate configuration file just for my module, but probably you are right and I should use the VLC configuration file instead.

Thanks for the reply! I am really not saying that it makes sense to have this information at the access level.

Re: Get accurate playback position

I want to know the exact amount of video in the pipe between me (that is, the access module) and the picture on the screen. It should be something around the value I returned replying to ACCESS_GET_PTS_DELAY but I would like to have the exact value.
