I have a problem with the activex window. It seems it is not correcly updated when another window moves over activeX.
Did somebody face this problem? Any solution?

I tried to "force" redrawing by sending the WM_PAINT message to the activex window, but it doesn't help

Thanks

nice solution, but I still believe is much simplier to use COleVariant, as long as you need just an "empty" object:

COleVariant var; /* this will do all initializations you need */
m_player.addTarget("file_name",var,CVLCControl::VLCPlayListInsert,-666);

Hope it helps..

Do you have a compile error or a runtime error?
What do you mean by "couldn't access"?

are you using Visual C++? if yes, just declare a variable of COleVariant and pass it to the addTarget function.

using the class view pannel add a new MFC class from activeX. Select the VideoLan VLC Plugin. Automatically a wrapper class is generated for the activeX interface. YOu will find the addTarget in the list. Declaring an object of that type you will be able to have access to all functions

Same problem for me. It looks like it takes the default audio card as input and try to link it in the filter graph. Look at the debug message: dshow debug: found device: SB Audigy Audio [DC40] dshow debug: using device: SB Audigy Audio [DC40] Using the graphedit I was able to built a graph in such a...

ok, so this is a limitation for DirectShow. What about using Linux? As far as I know, we have video4linux under Linux OS, right?
Can be Linux an alternative?

Did somebody try to use VLC with HW encoders? I have a Leadtek Walkie TV with MPEG1/2/4 HW capabilities and I would like to use VLC just to send over the network the HW encoded stream. Did somebody use this TV card? First of all I cannot select "none" for audio device. Audio is not require...

Got it!
The plugins directory should be included in the new project.

Thanks...

This is a nice trick.. :D , but I was wondering why do we need the .exe file. Looking into the code, it seems we need to point to the library not to the executable, right? I suppose the libvlc.dll file should be more than enough. The code is in the dll, not in the .exe file. So, did somebody try to ...

It seems you have a lot of experience in using libvlc.dll. I have a quick question about VLC_Init. The first parameter should point to the VLC install directory, right? What about the case we have a machine without VLC? In fact, I would like to develop a program based on libvlc, but I don't want to ...

I guess this is the proper place for this question: Did anybody try to run VLC on windows but without the interface? How can I deactivate the graphical interface in windows - to run like in Linux - command prompt only? What I would like to do is to use libvlc.dll to create a new application doing ju...

Did anybody try to run VLC on windows but without the interface? How can I deactivate the graphical interface in windows - to run like in Linux - command prompt only? What I would like to do is to use libvlc.dll to create a new application doing just streaming. This application should be an OS servi...
