Error while dislpaying video on iOS device

Postby kapoorsudhish » 20 Aug 2013 07:51

Hi All,
I managed to build a test application from libvlc and running the same on the iOS device, but while displaying the video on the screen, i am getting following errors:
[0x1196010] main generic error: option marq-color does not exist
[0x1196010] main generic error: option marq-opacity does not exist
[0x1196010] main generic error: option marq-position does not exist
[0x1196010] main generic error: option marq-refresh does not exist
[0x1196010] main generic error: option marq-size does not exist
[0x1196010] main generic error: option marq-timeout does not exist
[0x1196010] main generic error: option marq-x does not exist
[0x1196010] main generic error: option marq-y does not exist
I am not able to understand the problem of how to get over this issue and display the video on the device, sharing the code as:

Code: Select all

- (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib. //Setup the View [self showOnExternalDisplay]; _mediaPlayer = [[VLCMediaPlayer alloc] init]; // Do any additional setup after loading the view. VLCMedia *media; NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"rtsp://localhost/stream0"]; [_mediaPlayer setDelegate:self]; [_mediaPlayer setDrawable:self.movieView]; media = [VLCMedia mediaWithURL:url]; [_mediaPlayer setMedia:media]; [_mediaPlayer play]; } - (void)showOnExternalDisplay { UIScreen *screen = [UIScreen screens][0]; screen.overscanCompensation = UIScreenOverscanCompensationInsetApplicationFrame; self.externalWindow = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:screen.bounds]; UIViewController *controller = [[VLCExternalDisplayController alloc] init]; self.externalWindow.rootViewController = controller; [controller.view addSubview:movieView]; controller.view.frame = screen.bounds; movieView.frame = screen.bounds; [[AVAudioSession sharedInstance] setDelegate:self]; self.externalWindow.screen = screen; self.externalWindow.hidden = NO; }

Can some pointers be shared as to how to setup the player object to display the video on device.

Thanks for reply Jean, and yes the error can be ignored and the video is getting played by setting the view output correctly. But the video quality is very blocky any information on how that can be improved??

Change the deblocking algorithm.
