It was just an issue with Windows batch files. It ran correctly from the command line but the batch file was splitting the arguments and producing this behaviour: starting once with vlc --play-and-exit, closing immediately, then just running foo.avi (for which the default player is VLC) and being le...

I'm surprised you're putting up so much resistance to defend an obvious flaw in the library that is easily fixed but whatever, it's your library and if you're going to start suddenly introducing silly problems like this now (likely just because you don't like people pointing them out to you), who am...

Your changes are not valid. bool is not the same as int, not in general and not even on any single platform. You need a proper compiler. I was originally using an 8 bit integer as I assumed bool would be (smallest allocable unit), until I noticed that the typedef in stdbool.h, which is what you're ...

Compiling as C in visual studio 10 with 2.0.1 headers, anything that #includes libvlc.h. In libvlc.h: static inline int64_t libvlc_delay(int64_t pts) needs to be changed to static int64_t libvlc_delay(int64_t pts) to work (no inline) In libvlc_media_player.h: # include <stdbool.h> needs to be change...

Neither do anything for me (on Windows 7 x64) on either 2.0.1 (stable release) or 2.1.0 (nightly) I was hoping I wouldn't have to file a bug report and I was just doing something wrong, as bug reports (understandably) take a very long time to get dealt with. When I look at it in task manager, it see...

What is the current command line to quit at the end of the playlist? I have found many threads on it but all of them are several years out of date and none of them seem to work in either the stable release or nightly build. These include things like adding vlc:quit, vlc://quit and --play-and-exit. M...

These are not windows specific and this is certainly in the wrong forum, but yes, it would be nice to be able to play these. In the meantime, you can use something like tsmuxer (which can read the mpls files easily) to generate a single m2ts file from the mpls file and then play that. It does take a...

Is there any way to buffer http streams when playing or, if it already does, increase the buffer size? I play a fair amount of content from revision3.com using their "HD Quicktime" RSS links (just mp4s at 720p I believe) by copying the links and pasting them into VLC's "File -> Open N...

I'm going on the theory that it's not going to get up to date if nobody says anything

Dirac's site states that VLC 0.9.2 can play it. I haven't tried this myself but if it's true, it should probably go on the VLC feature page along with the list of operating systems that it plays on. Also, vorbis playback (on Windows, at least) has been buggy for quite a while (it was on 0.8.6 and is...
