Migration of new vlc application

[puckhead]

I have a vlc application that I upgraded from 0.9.9a to 1.1.3, and now the x11 video output windows no longer work as they did before. This is an application that receives an h.264 codec rtp video stream from a video phone, and outputs it on a Linux system. The previous code using 0.9.9a would create two windows with "VLC (XVideo output)" or "VLC (X11 output)".

Now the windows say "VLC (Colour AsCii Art)". More importantly, the output window looks like the bytes from the movie the Matrix. There are a lot of bright blue and green "t%8SX" characters filling up the entire screen. You can still make out the background outline of the person in the video phone window.

What functions should I be looking at that will have the applications X Window output behaving the same way, within the application?

Look at the vlc logs to see why it can't create X11 video output ?
Have you built the modules ? They have moved to libxcb from Xlibs so you need to adjust your build-depedancies

Yeah thanks, I started looking into debug, comparing debug between the two different versions. With the version that is working, I notice:

Code: Select all

xvideo output debug: XShm video extension v1.1 main video output debug: using video output module "xvideo"

With the version that is not working, I notice that it doesn't use "xvideo" output but instead I see:

Code: Select all

main generic debug: using vout display module "caca" main video output debug: using video output module "vout_wrapper"

[puckhead]

I re-compiled libvlc with xcb support, and I am still getting the same problem. The debug shows me that it is using the "vout_wrapper" from "main video output debug". How can I get this working with libvlc 1.1.3 as it used to look with 0.9.9a? Please help.

[puckhead]

This is what the video output looks like with vlc 1.1.3, when the video output display doesn't look correct:



This is what the video output looks like when it is correct, with the same application code using libvlc 0.9.9a:



How do I get the new code or library to render in the same way it is displayed with the old application library? Is there a way to force the video output module to use X11 output instead of "(Colour ASCii Art)" that is being used right now?

Can't diagnose your problem without logs.

Hi, here are the logs. Thanks.

And here we are. Though there might be a problem on top of it like not finding on which screen to display as you launch as root or some error in the window id you pass to VLC.

[Rémi Denis-Courmont]

A number of underlying libraries are missing as shown in the first lines of your VLC logs. You need to restore them.

Thank you. I was trying to create my own debian package on a build system, copy the debian package to a fresh system, and install. But obviously this doesn't include the missing libraries. Now I am just trying to use the default Ubuntu Debian package for vlc and libvlc-dev, which installs vlc 1.0.6. I'm getting a new problem now, I will post it under a new thread.
