Hi,

are the sources for these test builds available? If yes, where? If they are on the nightly builds ftp, just point me to the right one.

thanks!

How can I add input options (a list of arguments like --sout-all etc) when using the libvlc_media_descriptor_... API? What API function should I call to do this? I would like to do something similar to libvlc_playlist_add_extended but using the libvlc_media_descriptor_... and libvlc_media_instance_....

Are you using your own window? If not this might be why. Create a Window and tell lbvlc to use it with a call to libvlc_video_set_parent. ex:

libvlc_video_set_parent(LibvlcInstance, (libvlc_drawable_t)HWindow, LibvlcException);

You can then do what you want with the window.

You can run VLC with the command line switch --help and it will generate a text help file. Then you can look in that file for the basic options or look at the help switches to genrate a more detailed help file. see here: http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=17203&p=53307&hilit=...

I don't think this is possible with VLC as a standalone apllication. But if you are willing to go the development route you can do this using libvlc. See here: http://www.videolan.org/developers/vlc/doc/doxygen/html/group__libvlc.html#g1b6799263b93d35174a4d5acf093f066 General information libvlc deve...

You can find an example here on using libvlc: http://wiki.videolan.org/LibVLC_Tutorial_086c All you have to do is replace libvlc_playlist_add by libvlc_playlist_add_extended which takes a list of options. These can include the MRL you see at the top of stream settings dialog. So if you can stream us...

I have read the 'LibVLC Media List Management' document on the wiki and i have a question. ( http://wiki.videolan.org/LibVLC_Media_List_Management ) Using the new media list management in libvlc, can I create more than one list and player for one libvlc instance? The description of libvlc_new says i...

Hi, I am building a small application in C++ using libvlc.dll (libvlc_control.dll actually since I am using the 0.9.0 version from the trunk). Things are working pretty well and I have most of what I need completed. But I need to detect the end of whatever is playing. I have tried using the event ma...

Streaming a divx movie to udp has a problem when pausing and resuming the stream. The stream player takes a long time to recuperate, if it does, and the audio is usually out of sync. This happens since version 0.8.2. It worked fine in version 0.8.1. I am running this under Windows XP. Here are the s...

Hi, I stream mp3s from a server to a client machine, but if the client is started first the stream doesn't play. The client is always up and running and awaiting a stream. The command used is: vlc udp://@:1305 I later start a stream on the server machine. The command used is: vlc list.m3u --sout #du...

I am using 0.8.4.

I don't know if this has been reported yet. I could not find any mention of it on this forum. When you stream with VLC 0.8.2 or later to UDP. If you pause the streamer and start it again (press pause then play) the stream will not resume playing. This also happens if you use the track bar to jump to...

Thanks for your help. Looking at your code helped me figure things out in C#. I tried your way and because you had 2 option strings, things started to work. It seems there must be more than one option strings for it to work, or that a terminating string be added. A null string works. Here is some co...

I am trying to test streaming from the ActiveX without any luck so far. The media always plays in the control and is not streamed. I am using visual Studio and C#. Here is a snippet of my C# code: axVLCPlugin.playlistClear(); string[] lOptions = new string[] {":sout=#duplicate{dst=std{access=ud...

If I use the duplicate module to split a movie into two streams: one for the video and one for all the audio tracks, will the two streams be synchronised? I need to send the video to one subsystem (one IP address) and the audio tracks (3 languages) to another. One will display the video and the othe...

I am streaming a Divx video file that has 3 audio tracks (english, french and spanish), but all audio tracks are garbled into one when I try to play them at the receiving end. I need audio and video on differenet ports. I stream using the following multicast command: vlc C:\temp\ice_mulCBR.avi --sou...
