Hi, Rémi, thanks for reply! You mean the deadlock is because application? But we have tried many methods, even if the application has only several lines of code, the deadlock still exists... For example, I used a timer to call libvlc_media_player_stop and then call libvlc_media_player_play to play a...

libvlc_media_player_stop really often causes deadlock.....OMG....

It has been years since we found the problem of calling libvlc_media_player_stop. This function uses WaitForSingleObject with a parameter of INFINITE which can cause hang up of program. We have tried many methods including calling it from thread,destroying window before stop, but no method can work ...

Anybody knows what changed from v2.2.7 to v3.0+ for udp multicast

Can I call set_media while playing and make it have effect immedi...

Anybody can give a clue? Is there any parameters or options that can be set to keep screen not cleaned when playing? Thanks!

Thanks for reply. I need to compile vlc because I want to add a recorder function into it.
And also I want to remove the black screen shen switching from one URL to another.
(v2.2.x has no this problem, only v3.0.x)

1 second is OK. I mean if it is possible to keep the last frame when switching to next URL?
I found that when using v2.2.x, switch from one url to another will not show a black screen, only v3.0.x has this problem...

Trying to play several URLs using libvlc_media_list_player_play_item_at_index, but each time there is always a black screen when switching. For example, the playlist is rtsp://192.168.0.101, rtsp://rtsp://192.168.0.102, rtsp://192.168.0.103 calling libvlc_media_list_player_play_item_at_index(p_listP...
