Missing argument --alsa-audio-device

[peppy.player]

I'm using the latest Raspberry OS Lite Bookworm.
VLC was installed by using the command: sudo apt-get install vlc
I've got the following error when I was trying to play a testing audio file with output ALSA device 'default':

Code: Select all

$ vlc --aout=alsa --alsa-audio-device=default test.wav VLC media player 3.0.20 Vetinari (revision 3.0.20-0-g6f0d0ab126b) vlc: unknown option or missing mandatory argument `--alsa-audio-device=default' Try `vlc --help' for more information.

Was that argument --alsa-audio-device dropped or replaced by any other argument?

Thanks!

No and no. Maybe you did not install the ALSA output plugin

Does it mean that I should recompile VLC manually and include that output plugin?

I don't know. Works fine on Debian and Ubuntu.

It looks like it has ALSA support on 32-bit OS version but doesn't have on 64-bit. I'm not sure why it works this way. The command 'vlc --list' returns much shorter list in case of 64-bit OS.
