I know but he may be busy and it is faster to try directly; forward slashes never need to be escaped, instead for backslashes depend from the context so forward slashes are always safer.

I do not want to enter in the discussion but one can install any app that is on Play Store with Yalp Store app, you can also download apps for device you don't have. One can also ditch the stock ROM and install a custom one (like LineageOS) ;) PS: I think a good way to counter attack is change the a...

I haven't tried but I think forward slashes and absolute path should always work on Windows in any case.

Youtube convert the video so it lose all extra data, you need to upload it as file ( for example on: http://www.embedupload.com/ ) and then post the link.

You should post a sample video file (possibly small).

Otherwise how can the problem be fixed?

To do anything you should at least provide a sample file

Are the time informations stored in a separate file or they are stored inside the video file?

I think this is the intended behavior.

Because they can be external audio tracks of a video, example:
video.avi
video-english.mp3
video-italian.mp3
videoANYTEXT.mp3

And since they are classified as external audio tracks they doesn't appear as separate files.

Hi,
I need a part of code that execute completely separated from the main code.
I have found coroutine but they aren't async.

Is there a way to run async code in lua?

Well, I get it wrong with copy paste, the was meant for the local path and not for the url, and the url was meant to be started with

Sorry I was unclear, here some examples: Not encoded URL and local path: ../my folder name/file name.ext www.site.com/path name/file name.ext Encoded URL and local path: ../www.site.com/path%20name/file%20name.ext my%20folder%20name/file%20name.ext On Wikipedia there aren't exact info of what need t...

Hi,
is there a guide for creating VLP Archives?

I know they are zip, I'm asking about the content.

What are the rule for file naming?
What are the mandatory / optional metadata?
etc.

The option can apply to both urls and local paths, enabled by default (both local path and url are encoded) to respect the standard but can be disabled (bot urls and local paths not encoded) for compatibility with broken devices.

All my .SRT files are external but VLC 3+ does not display them, while VLC 2.2.8 on the same computer will display them with no issues.

You should post the exact full path and filename of both the video file and the subtitle files to check why they aren't auto-loaded.

In my opinion percent encoding is ugly, URL encoding is better.

vlc_rand is not exported... Regarding this change: https://github.com/videolan/vlc/commit/b9e2274d6b1b1221604310fd04cae7f8aa5b3915 Can please be added a function that return a decimal number between 0 and 1 (1 itself not included) so it match the behaviour of original lua function and also in this ...

Hi all, Can anyone tell me how can I get my mouse's "browser forward" and "browser back" buttons to work with VLC as hotkeys for medium jump forward/back? VLC does not seem to accept these buttons as hotkeys.... seriously?!? Thanks To the VLC developers: It is 2014 and mice that...

Edit: It would be nice to be able to set custom headers in a way like this: http://w3.impa.br/~diego/software/luasocket/http.html Check following topic: https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=109033 It may be a solution but it is too much problematic to load compiled code since it is O...

3) If you don't even know, then how will code know? Quote from: http://freesoft.org/CIE/RFC/2068/143.htm 13.5.1 End-to-end and Hop-by-hop Headers For the purpose of defining the behavior of caches and non-caching proxies, we divide HTTP headers into two categories: End-to-end headers, which must be...

Ale5000, you're back???

I haven't too much free time but yes
How are you?

Great! We've made sooo much progress on subtitles

I haven't yet had time to look at them directly but from the VLC changelog I see many new subtitles format supported and many interesting changes, great work

Who is the one that must be contacted to fix trac login problems?

tag!

Modules are listed under VLC plugins.

And I don't think the addons site is the place to list Lua helper functions.

VLC plugins seems to be (looking at the ones already here) for C modules, not Lua modules; so currently it fit only only in VLC other

1) They are custom headers so they will never be supported; 2) The problem is that the missing of the header now cause changes in the server behaviour; it is always possible to have changes in the server behavior also without custom headers; 3) I don't really understand this point, I know only reque...

I don't question that there is a use case for Lua modules to help build other Lua scripts.
I just don't think they belong on addons, which is a site for end users.

If I tell to an end user that my Lua SD require a Lua module where should I point the end user to download it?

Custom headers shouldn't be handled at all (they should just be passed), it should simply reject them if they contain special characters like ' " : \r \n \0 (or to be safer allow only alphanumeric characters) under header field name and under header field value (name and value handled separatel...

If the module is installed then a LUA SD/extension/etc. can just use require 'lib-name' to use it, and in the description of a LUA SD/extension/etc. I can just write: it require the following module 'lib-name' Edit: Just to be clear I really mean modules under => VLC/lua/modules (like simplexml.luac...
