The VideoLAN Forums

There's no way to delete currently playing song so I wanted to make a script to do so. All I need is the file name. So far my best bet is using the web interface data in http://localhost:8080/requests/status.xml , but the filename tag contains the title and not the filename so I have to cross refere...

Thanks!

I can't give you a good example because it seems to happen when the download rate on the video keeps wavering, eg 1minute it's going 200KB/s then 50KB/s back and forth. Is there a setting so I can manually set how much of the video it should load before resuming to maximize uninterrupted playback?

Whenever I open a video file with VLC from the command line, it starts playing instantly and the frame freezes and skips often. I want it to download like 3mb or download for a few seconds before starting to play. Also it could work if the vid continued to download after clicking pause. I'm trying t...

--no-osd worked, thank you.

I've been constantly looking through the command line options but there's so many options it's hard to tell whats what sometimes. I tried several other ones before asking.

Whenever I open a video stream the URL of the video appears like a subtitled on the video in HUGE text and fades out slowly. Is there a way I can disable this using a command line option?

Also, does anyone know how to configure the extended settings from the command line or links that can help?

it's not like it can stream from the rar file or load the 700 videos to memory. If it does add that feature it would still have to extract to a temporary directory anyway and it would still take awhile. 7zip uses the zlib compression library, and if it can't extract multiple rars neither can vlc.

just right click and change your aspect ratio. I have 1600 x 1050 so I set my aspect ratio to 160:105 for full screen coverage.

If you save the playlist as an m3u, I wrote a php script that just makes it show the filename (without the extension or directory).

viewtopic.php?f=7&t=39611#p123441

ok I wrote a small php code that scans the videolan directory for m3u files and adds an "EXTINF" title based on the file name (to hide the directories). I can't really check how long the file is so I entered -1 so it hides the time, but that settings is intended for streams. I really don't...

Real player really annoyed me a long time ago and I never used it again. I use real alternative to play rm/ram files with media player classic. http://wiki.videolan.org/index.php/Talk:RealMedia I read vlc player can load dlls if real player is already installed to load rm streams, can it do the same...

Thanks for the help but it doesn't seem to be making the playlist visible. I've tried: vlc.exe --wx-config-last=(-1,0,0,1024,768)(0,480,60,355,105)(1,44,58,500,300)(6,0,0,-1,150) playlist.m3u vlc.exe --wx-config-last "(-1,0,0,1024,768)(0,480,60,355,105)(1,44,58,500,300)(6,0,0,-1,150)" play...

I downloaded the nightly build from yesterday 20070801. I can't find any options to hide the directory for the playlist items. Is it a command line option?

Excellent, thank you. XD

Sometimes the directory listings are pretty long. It would be much more convenient to have the option to hide the directory and only show the filename.

I've tried all kinds of stuff and I can't get the playlist to open by command line. I know I can just leave it open and it will be open the next time but I'd prefer making sure using the command line. I've tried many things like this mess: vlc.exe --playlist-autostart --show-intf --interact -I --wx-...
