Use libvlc_video_set_output_callbacks() to work around high CPU usage

We are developing a desktop application for viewing all kinds of media including Office documents, text, audio, video, and images. The application is written in C++ and uses Qt and Qml. Due to this fact, we cannot use libvlc_media_player_set_xwindow() but rather libvlc_video_set_callbacks(). Unfortu...

AxVLC cursor and/or mouse events

We require to override or augment default cursor events including mouse move and click events. Is there a way to get callbacks to these kinds of events from AxVLC?

Re: 3.x AxVLC distribution dependencies

I wanted to feedback after my tests.
I created a new InstallShield installer without the gui and lua subfolders in the plugins folder. As far as I can tell, AxVLC worked correctly without experiencing any problems at all.

This is good enough for now. Thanks for the help.

Re: 3.x AxVLC distribution dependencies

You've used a debug version and not a release version. plugins subfolder shouldn't be > 80MB This is great news. We are stuck with the debug version at the moment until our tests are finished, then we will deploy with the release version, so that will lighten the load. I'll remove the gui folder (t...

3.x AxVLC distribution dependencies

We are using a nightly build of VLC and AxVLC in our VB6 application. I have observed that the standalone installer of VLC Media Player on Windows now includes a plugins folder and no longer has a locale folder in the Program Files installation folder. Since there is no up-to-date documentation, thr...

Re: --no-autoscale has no effect

Thank you for the help. I'm not sure why my first attempt didn't work - I wasn't even getting event firing even though the event was registered. The above code works and I've been able to adapt it to my VB6 code also. It is a more elegant way to get the native video size information than what I had ...

Re: --no-autoscale has no effect

Hmmm...this looks promising but even though I've copy/pasted your code into my test page, it doesn't seem to work. No resizing is performed. Can you please test and post a complete working example?

Re: --no-autoscale has no effect

The following code proves my claim. The video in question is 480x270 but it renders at 1280x720. <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta content="text/html; charset=utf-8" http-equiv="Content-Type"/> <title>Vids</title> </head> <body onload='player("http://images.videolan.org/im...

--no-autoscale has no effect

The AxVLC apparently does not respect the --no-autoscale (neither :no-autoscale) switch. As far a my tests can confirm, the AxVLC *always* resizes the video display to fit maximally in the container window while maintaining aspect ratio. Here is the VB6 code I use to reproduce the issue: Public Sub ...

AxVLC hangs when changing items rapidly

I'm using the AxVLC component in a legacy VB6 application. If I follow the example from the documentation (https://wiki.videolan.org/Documentation:WebPlugin/#Playlist_object) it functions as expected. That is, if I clear the current playlist, add the desired media item to the playlist, and then exec...

Re: vlc.video.width vlc.video.height activeX

We can reproduce this with the 3.0 nightly build however in our case it depends on when .width/.height are called. If either is called before the video is played but after it is added to the playlist, then .width/.height are always 0. However, after the video starts playing, eventually .width/.heigh...
