VLC on Windows - default replay rate

[mkcimini]

Using the native windows application with the -repeat flag, How do I get an avi video file to replay at slow speed? Every time the short clip replays, teh parameters re-set. Would like to keep them fixed acrodd replays. What section of the code controls the defauly settings of VLC to re-set?

To reset the defaults or better yet erase the preferences directory. C:\Documents and Settings\Owner (this is you)\Application Data\VLC Erase VLC, Application Data is a hidden directory so you will need to make it visible. Reset can be accomplished external to VLC by going to Start Menu. Programs, VideoLAN and selecting the reset icon or internal to VLC through Miscellaneous, Preferences, reset. Then you must restart VLC.

Not really what I had in mind.

What I'd like to do is to build vlc so that whatever short clip I play in it, it loops continusously (-repeat) in slow motion (????) and does so ever loop/repeat cycle. Would changing INPUT_RATE_DEFAULT accomplish that?

You are going to have several hurtles to overcome. Assuming you could get the current version of the player to open in slow-mo each time the clip reaches EOF all of the libraries, directx etc. are released and reloaded for the next loop so the slow-mo would probably be lost on the second pass.

If they are re-loaded, which function gets called to re-start the loop?

Also, has anyone been using Eclipse to hack VLC?

Yeah I have been trying to use Eclipse to build VLC but at the moment I am having trouble getting the right setting to actually build the entire project. If you have had any luck with this please let me know
