Hallo, my question is:
Is there a possibillity, to controll things like color-management, brightness, gamma in vlc with terminal?
I want vlc to start with a specific color-configuration and i want install him without a gui .
Thanks

Yes. You need to set the video adjust filter and corresponding parameters from the command line. See the command line help for reference.

I don't know how to work with the parameters --XXX
vlc --brightness <2.0> /mnt/cdrom for example doesn't work. Wthout --brightness <2.0> the DVD is played.
Code: Select all
Image properties filter
Module name: adjust
--contrast <float> Image contrast in the 0-2 range.
--brightness <float> Image brightness in the 0-2 range.
--hue <integer> Image hue in the 0-360 range.
--saturation <float> Image saturation in the 0-3 range.
-gamma <float> Image gamma in the 0-10 range.

I hope you guys realize how unhelpful you are. I finally hacked it out. Add the following to your shortcut target:
This enables the filter. Now add (for example):
- --contrast=1 --brightness=1 --hue=180 --saturation=2 --gamma=1
The numbers are floating-point decimal numbers, e.g. "1.002". The available ranges are as follows:
- contrast 0-2
brightness 0-2
hue 0-360
saturation 0-3
gamma 0-10
I haven't tried this in Linux but I believe that you leave the equal sign out there. Hope this saves someone the couple of hours of headaches it took me to ferret this out.

Thank you, I was searching exactly this. I must say the VLC help is not very clear about this.
