Is there way to pause the streaming within the code?

I manage to edit the stream_out part to get it to stop sending; however, the file still gets read and doesn't stop.

Can you tell me whereabouts of which line I should edit to add the -l ?
My code resides in 'access_output' module.

I've changed the Module.ac to include the codes I've added, as for the Configure.ac I didn't make any changes since my code reside in one of the already existing module folder. Usually, in g++/gcc I think you can use the -l to link library (such as to include anything that's in lib*.a). However, I'm...

Error message is just "undefined referenced to '<function>'" I've included the header for the API and the function is in the library.

I have a external library file that I want to link with one of the module in the VLC. How do I go about doing this?

I've tried modifying the Makefile directly (although I shouldn't) and tried adding the -l parameter, but it seems to just ignore the parameter. Which file should I edit?

Tried changing the compiler to use g++ for everything, but it gave me an error (I'm guessing due to c++ compiler being more picky).

An off topic question. Is it possible to link an *.lib file (from visual c++) to be used on Cygwin? If so how?

I'm not trying to use cout; rather, I'm just trying to access a C++ class within the C code (udp.c). I realized that any file labeled in .c compiles using gcc, and .cpp using g++. It seems that if I use g++ to compile the C++ code it's fine. However, now that the two code is separate, is there a way...

Realized I need to put #include <iostream> however when I do so the compiler says it can't find the "iostream.
Also, I've placed the code I'm trying to integrate in /module/mycode/ folder, is this ok?

The error message I get is basically "parse error before xxxx"

And first thing it errors due to parsing is on this line, and rest of error is also parsing error:

I have a code that's written in VC++. I'm trying to integrate this code into VLC (the UDP streaming code); however I'm getting a parsing error. (I think its due the code being C++ and VLC code is C, class are structured differently, etc.)

Is there a way to get it work together?

Thanks for your response, but one more question. How about "stream_out" module? Is this for the RTP output? Also, I've been looking at the code for the streaming part (server). Based on my observation it seems the VLC breaks down each streaming step by reading the file, putting into a buff...

Based on the article above, what is difference between "access" and "access-output" module?

No, you cannot do this out of the box with current VLC. I was wondering are there any documentation available regarding how the streaming is implemented? I was going through the Hacker's guide http://wiki.videolan.org/Documentation:Hacker%27s_Guide and it doesn't seem to have information how the st...

This may sound pretty simple but I want to do the following: 1. When UDP/RTP stream is received, it will buffer it (to a hard drive or memory) instead of playing the stream till it's done. 2. When streaming stops, it will automatically play the buffered stream from the hard drive. Is there a way I c...

I decided to just go with the older build (0.8.6i) due to the Qt problems... This is what I did to get the 0.8.6i build to compile correctly: 1. Setup Cygwin as explained in http://wiki.videolan.org/Win32CompileCygwinNew page. 2. When installing the packages for Cygwin DO NOT install "mingw-run...

Can you post your configure-vlc.sh? Edit: To VLC_help I managed to get the same md5sum file of qatomic_windows.h (it was from qt-win-opensource-src-4.4.1 not qt4-4.4.1-win32-bin.tar.bz2), and followed your instruction by copying lib and include folder from the Qt package to the /usr/win32 folder. Ho...

I searched for qt4-4.4.1-win32-bin.tar.bz2 but didn't find anything.

Strange, I've actually tried the #ifndef and it produced same error...

By any chance are you (VLC_help) compiling under the linux environment and not cygwin?

I'm just about out of idea.

How do you go about compiling the code using gcc4 instead of gcc3?

9124a08b966e37995c60aa92ba3f3128 *qatomic_windows.h Also I tried your fixed method by extracting lib and include folders from QT package to the usr/win32/ Now I get a different error (actually alot of errors) that are not related to the 'Interlock' declaration. If you want to look.... In file includ...

I couldn't compile either. Also, do you mean qt-win-opensource-src-4.4.1.zip, not qt4-4.4.1-win32-bin.tar.bz2?

Based on my research, it seems QT4 is not supported in the Cygwin... maybe this is why it's not working?

Tried with 0.9.3 and still having same problem.
