After playing with various options I found that these options on Android in custom libVLC options: fullscreen, aspect-ratio=center is giving me the required results which correspond to following command line options on Windows: --fullscreen --crop=5:4 More consistency between the various platforms w...

With VLC on Windows I can crop the display of a RTSP camera stream using for example --crop=16:9
On Android I thought I could pass this option in the Custom libVLC options (crop=16:9),but it doesn't work.

What am I doing wrong or is cropping not supported on Android?

BR, JockyW

Have this issue on Android TV and Firetv both with dvb and teletext subtitles. Is there any dev working on this?

That I answered in the post above: the answer is no. So it means reverse-engineering and h*cking.
But that is a lot of fun and for 35 bucks it is a nobrainer.

You mean don't believe the vendor spec for the encoding? Well we will see about that. It should be sold by the end of this month then we'll start hacking that GPU

You may want to look at this 35US$ board, the raspberry-pi: http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/news/2012/01/tiny-25-raspberry-pi-linux-board-reportedly-offers-twice-the-performance-of-iphone-4s-gpu.ars " The board is built around the Broadcom BCM2835 chipset, which is designed to handle intensive m...

I am actually interested in hw accelerated *encoding* support. Is this possible or feasible ?

I can confirm that on my iMac with OSx 10.5.8 and 32-bit vlc 1.1.10 Had to downgrade to 1.1.9 to fix it. On another iMac with Snow Leopard the 64-bit vlc 1.1.10 has not such problems.

I can also open ticket if you don't want to create trac account.

I would be grateful if you can file the bug for me. Thanks.

The --play-and-stop option worked fine in 1.0.5 on win xp.
Today I installed 1.1.0 and the --play-and-stop option no longer works. That is the first stream starts playing wheras it shouldn't.

I tested it by starting vlc from the cmd line as follows:
vlc --play-and-stop playlist.m3u

Or do you mean geeks who don't like Windowz.

Thanks for the tips j-b, I'll try cegcc. If I succeed then I will let you know here. There are so many fancy Windows Mobile devices out there, so I'm actually surprised there is so little interest. But then again there are not that many geeks who like building toolchains and who have time and endura...

I've built a toolchain for cygwin according to instructions I found here: http://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php/Compiling_ScummVM/Windows_CE I've downloaded 0.8.4a sourcecode in order to verify that it can actually build a VLC for WINCE version which is know to work. However, as could be expected, I get...

I could stream from VLC on PC to VLC for WINCE. Streaming via http works fine, I tried rtsp as well but that failed. Here is an example of the parameters of VLC on PC: :sout=#transcode{vcodec=DIV3,vb=350,width=320,height=240,fps=15,acodec=mp3,ab=48,channels=1,samplerate=44100}:std{access=http,mux=og...

I think the problem is that live555 does no longer support an optional username and password inside a RTSP url. In 0.8.4a it was still called "livedotcom" and it works fine: main debug: adding playlist item `rtsp://Admin:123456@192.168.1.26:7070' ( rtsp://Admin:123456@192.168.1.26:7070 ) m...

Thx, I'll set up a site for you to test. Will drop you a PM with a URL in 1-2 days

It works with release 0.8.4a and doesn't work with later versions such as the current release 0.8.6c

Hum, this looks like a duplicate of a previous forum post :) I'll answer it anyway just in case: Try removing "/test.sdp" in your server command line. Right :D Nice to see how you handle a batch of support requests. I already tried that ... I've dropped "/test.sdp" at the server...

With VLC 0.8.4a it was possible to open password protected RTSP streams using this type of url: This is no longer possible. Is there a workaround?

VLC as RTSP server works nicely in my LAN. The command lines which work are as follows for VLC server (includes video transcoding): :sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,vb=384,width=320,height=240}:rtp{dst=192.168.1.29,port=1234,sdp=rtsp://192.168.1.29:7070/test.sdp} and for VLC client: rtsp://192.168.1.29:...

Well, after a reboot of Windows XP everything works fine ...
One of those mysteries of Windowz ...

In VLC I'm playing the stream http://192.168.1.13:8080/test.sdp from another VLC server (a transcoded mpeg4 file). Audio works fine, but there is no video. See below the message log from the player. Does anyone have an idea what goes wrong? live555 debug: RTP subsession 'audio/MPA' live555 warning: ...

Thanks for that. I can get it to work that way with an rtsp input stream from a hardware mpeg4 encoder (rtsp://172.16.1.26:7070) Now I'd like to generate test rtsp streams with VLC, instead of with the mpeg4 encoder. These streams shall be received by a VLC client instance running on another PC in t...

Is it possible to feed a unicast rtsp stream to VLC which then multicasts it w/o transcoding in a LAN?

Sorry for bogging, but are there any UPnP server functionalities planned?

j-b: in which forum are we supposed to give feedback about 0.9.0 ?
