time_extension does not seem to work

Postby mbaudin » 30 Mar 2023 21:08

I am using Version 3.0.18 Vetinari (Intel 64bit). My Mac has an M1 processor but the download file was supposed to be for both.

I have copied time_intf.lua and time_ext.lua into VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/share/lua/extensions.

Time v3.2 (Intf) appears in the Extensions menu.

The time format stays --->Clear<----

I select [E] / [D][_]([T]) as a format.

SETTINGS has Enable Interface checked for time_intf

When I click START!, the button blinks once but gives no indication that the input has been recorded.

If I close the window and open it again from the Extensions menu, I am back to --->Clear<----

If I click SAVE on SETTINGS, I am told to restart VLC for changes to take effect.

I quit VLC and restart it. I open the window again from the Extensions menu, and I am back to --->Clear<----

If I choose a format, click START! and play a video, I still don't get the extended time display.

What am I doing wrong?
