I noticed that volume control in VLC 2.0 is much different from 1.1 or earlier.
So 50% from old VLC equals ~80% of new one.
Maybe it's logarithmic...

Anyone can help with writing a mathematical equation to convert 2.0 volume level to old classic?

Ok, I added "--vout=..." to libvlc_new parameters and it seems to work. But is there any way to change vout without recreating libvlc instance (stop playback -> do something to change vout -> restart playback)? Maybe using some internal function and structures from libvlccore or whatever? ...

You are offering me to recompile VLC myself? Cool.

Only my ISP has 100K of IPTV users, ~50% is XP. So they all will forever stay on 1.1.11 now.

Adding ":vout=..." with libvlc_media_add_option gives no result, in 1.1.x it worked.

Setting inital crop (":crop=..."), aspert-ratio, deinterlace, volume level, etc with libvlc_media_add_option also do not work.
It seems to me that only options like ":sout=.." works.

I have found the problem. Function "if_nametoindex" requires Windows Vista or higher.

So you left millions of IPTV users who use Windows XP without support. Thank you very much.

miface-addr ALWAYS worked also for input for last 6 years that I use VLC since version 0.8.4

so how to change INPUT interface in VLC 2.0.x ???

as far as I understand the problen in with function "if_nametoindex" that before 2.0 was defined to "atoi" and worked

VLC 1.0.x and 1.1.x:
vlc.exe --miface-addr=192.168.0.10 udp://@239.1.15.1:1234 <- works perfectly

VLC 2.0
vlc.exe --miface=192.168.0.10 udp://@239.1.15.1:1234 <- nothing
vlc.exe --miface-addr=192.168.0.10 udp://@239.1.15.1:1234 <- nothing

Windows XP SP3 with all updates.

What should I do?

crop video filter (e.g. WxH+L+T) doesnt work since 0.9.9

but aspect-ratio cropping work, you need to set variable 'crop' to '16x9'

emmm... up?

have your ever seen not interlaced video from SAT or IPTV?
yadiff uses twice more CPU then Blend
VLC is the only open software for multicast IPTV

X deinterlace doesn't work either - at least, not in 1.0.3

agree

Any news about Blend and X ? Blend is the best deinterlace ever

I just can't understand how this thing happend. Nobody use VLC since 1.0 for watching MPEG2? It can't be... Or people who watch MPEG2 still use 0.8.x?

ok people, let's find the bug ourself

if i copy libvout_directx_plugin.dll from 1.0.2 there is no problem (nice solution by the way)

the problem is that source files vout_diretcx.c are identical in 1.0.2 and 1.0.3, so the problem is in some include files. any ideas?

it can't be driver issue because it's only in 1.0.3, not in 1.0.2/1.0.1/1.0.0 if i copy libvout_directx_plugin.dll from 1.0.2 there is no problem (nice solution by the way) the bug is only in DirectX Overlay output, not in DirectX Software / Direct3D / OpenGL / WinGDI WinGDI can use overlay ? :shock:

The thing happens with DirectX Overlay output (so i can't take the screenshot, because it's overlay :) ) on XP or Vista/7 with Aero off Just take VLC window and drag it to any side of the screen, so part of VLC window must be out of desktop. And you will see this bug. http://img130.imageshack.us/img...

ok, thanks, but it is not just a GUI bug, as i mentioned before

yes, but even if i click blend DISABLED is selected and visualy there is no deinterlace
see the screenshot




i think this does not look like blend deinterlce...

MPEG2, IPTV, DVD (VOB) Try youself open some MPEG2 file, enable BOB deinterlace (or any other except blend), then switch to BLEND, then again go into deinterlace menu and you will see that DISABLED is set, not BLEND that you clicked. If open video and directly go and set BLEND it will be marked BLEN...

Windows XP SP3

all other deinterlace modes work, blend worked in 0.9.9
i don't know how to show this, because it's visible only in action, in screenshot not

--custom-crop-ratios and --crop are used just for videowindow, it is not a filter for example i have a mpeg2 channel width 520px width, but in video window it has full 720px (mpeg2 feature) width, so "--crop-geometry" width to 500px cuts 10px each side, but "--crop" cuts 60px eac...

about cropping, "--crop=X:Y" is not the same as crop-geometry
anybody knows how to enable crop-geometry is VLC 1.x ?

this thing realy works, thanks!

btw, __VLC_var_Set can be found in libvlccore.dll

no result :vout-filter=adjust,deinterlace,crop - only deinterlace realy works :contrast=1.00 - no :brightness=100.00 - no :hue=0.00 - no :saturation=100.00 - no :gamma=2.00 - no :autocrop=0 - no :crop-geometry=312x344+16+16 - no :deinterlace-mode=bob - ok :aspect-ratio=16:9 - ok :miface-addr=192.168...

anybody, please!

I'm trying to migrate my libvlc-based application from old good 0.8.x to new 1.x I need to implemet things like deinterlace, cropping, adjust, etc. So, I'm sending variables through libvlc_playlist_add_extended This 4 things work out of box, like with 0.8.x :vout-filter=deinterlace :deinterlace-mode...
