Stream will not play in window in version 2.1.5
Posted: 03 Feb 2015 20:42
Hello,
On a Windows 7 Professional (64-bit) computer I am trying to open a multicast stream in a window smaller than the native video stream using the following command line:
vlc.exe udp://@233.3.3.1:3333 --volume=0 --qt-start-minimized --no-video-deco --no-embedded-video --no-video-title-show --width="640" --height="360" --video-x="1" --video-y="1"
Using VLC version 2.0.8, the video appears in the upper-left third of the display as expected.
Using VLC version 2.1.5, the video opens in full screen.
Using 2.1.5, If I add the --no-autoscale option the video opens in the correct size window in the correct position but the image appears zoomed in (and then cropped) such that only about the center 50% if the video is visible.
I have tried many combinations of the --scale and --zoom options but nothing has given me the full video like I am successfully able to get with version 2.0.8.
Is this a bug in 2.1.5 or a change in how the parameters work in this version?
Thank you.
PS - Not sure if this souls have gone in the General forum or not. I am unable to test on a Linux platform at this time.
