The VideoLAN Forums

It's so sad that you have one guy who has no tact and obviously is not customer service oriented. I will make do with the assist that I have received up to this point. Many of our customers have asked how we do what we do with our video presentation. At one point in time, we were glad to tell them a...

I'm sorry you don't understand.

Please just let the support people tend to my questions and problems. That would be appreciated.

Why are you making this so much harder and also removing my replies so people see only what you are commenting on? I just want my answers to your great product.

Thank you.

Have you read some of the answers to replies? They are totally off tangent to what was asked. Sometimes it is not easy explaining what the problem is. A simple question usually gets a misdirected answer. Have you really read throgh the forum? This happens time and time again. All I want is for someo...

Tried doing that but the replies got further away from a resolve. You can get defensive but that doesn't solve the issue.

Does this now mean you won't assist me?

I understand that there are lots of inquiries about the program, which I think is great. But you seem to use quick answers based on a quick read. Would you mind taking a step back and seeing if you understand the question before answering, as it really doesn't resolve the issue and actually makes it...

Can I get a reply to this please...thank you. No, separating the controls did nothing. I toggled that and full screen combinations (each time closing VLC and opening it back up). It would still look like it is opening up a full screen window then just show the desktop. Also, it seems to be erroring ...

Regarding: AFAIK there isn't any shortcut for this, but you naturally create one with netcat or similar tool. Does it help if you separate controls from video window? http://wiki.videolan.org/WindowsFAQ-1.1 ... _window.3F No, separating the controls did nothing. I toggled that and full screen combin...

Thank you for the information and follow up. As you can see, it is not easy to keep up with things. I haven't seen a -I oldrc command mentioned anywhere that I have looked. Plus it's a little different when initially starting up the program and then sending commands in the DOS-looking command window...

I entered the following from a Windows DOS prompt C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC>vlc -I rc --sub-filter=marq@movie(marquee=%H;%m%s,position=6) d:\movies d:\movies is a directory where the video clips are stored @movie was used to replace your @something It opened VLC and started playing the fir...

That's great, but you're assuming I understand where @name is coming from...I was told for Windows users you need to follow --marq-marquee="text" format. Is this not correct? Do I use your format after I initiate VLC by entering: VLC -I rc Sorry, I keep getting cryptic responses. I would r...

Hi gang: I posted something before and it ended up to be a bug that I believe has been fixed, but I still have the same quandry. VLC is showing a movie on several TV screens throughout the store. Just trying to be a bit fancy, we'd like to show which customer is up next to be served. You know, like ...

There must be some bug in this. If you start vlc -I rc --sub-filter "marq@test{marquee=Hello}" then type add something.avi you can change the text by typing @test marq-marquee Goodbye But if you do same for logo vlc -I rc --sub-filter "logo@test{file=a.png}" then type add someth...

Which VLC version you use?

0.9.8a

http://wiki.videolan.org/How_to_add_logo#Dynamically_change_logo_using__RC.2C_then_send_output_to_stream_and_local_debugging_display Thanks...I got this far and was able to get video going in full screen with a seperate DOS-looking command-line box. The intial entry I made was: vlc -I rc c:\users\b...

Is there any way to have VLC continuously read the logo image files? I need to change the image while the video is playing.

You can do something along the line: Erwan10 Sorry Erwan10 ... I have no idea what the script is doing, let alone know how I need to set it up or run it or ... I really do appreciate your trying to help, though. Thanks much! If anyone can help me out with this, please let me know. I will figure out...

Erwin10 wrote: Changing OSD marquee or logo on the fly is possible with the rc interface. This can also be integrated into a shell/batch script for easier use. Very much appreciate the feedback, Erwin10. Unfortunately, the reply from j-b is what makes VLC frustrating - they say to read all document...

I just bumped into VLC. Someone should have knocked me into it a long time ago! I think it's great and had something that I've been thinking would be a neat feature but no one had it until now (I think) - but I need a variation of the OSD Marquee ... I need it to be interactive without spending hund...
