Re: time counter in an independent window

this looks like something that may be done in a lua extension, maybe you'll find something fitting your need here [1] alternatively, the current time is displayed in the HTTP interface [2], maybe that's enough for you [1 https://addons.videolan.org/browse?cat=323 [2] https://wiki.videolan.org/docume...

Re: What?

this looks like you are doing some screen grabbing, the program (vlc or something else) you use for recording is writing at the end of the video and you're playing it simultaneously.

Re: how to get this extra-info from libvlc

you should use the libvlc_media_get_meta [1] api on your media, the media need either to be playing or to have been preparsed

you may use the docker image that our CI uses [1], it should contains the right version of mingw and other tools required to cross compile from linux. alternatively you may have a look at how our CI images are built [2]. Process for building on windows is documented here [3] [1] https://code.videola...

Re: Saving VLC preferences

more or less, some modules are platform specific, for instance if you force rendering to use D3D11 on Windows, it won't work on Linux

Re: Play video file from memory using libvlc_media_new_callbacks API

My advise would be to use a standard streaming protocol rather than packetizing mp4 yourself , for instance you can stream using RTP or MPEG-TS, and ask vlc to directly listen to the stream like "rtp://@:1234" (with 1234 your listening port)

Re: How to delete played files list on "Open File" window?

in tools > preferences > interface, you can uncheck "save recently played item", this will prevent recent medias to be stored, but be wary that this concerns both the windows recent list (the one you're mentioning) and the "media" > "open recent media" list
