Embedded window video (--drawable-hwnd=<integer> ) doesn't work in Windows 7?

Hi,
The VLC command line has an option to enable Embedded window video" feature as follows:

--drawable-hwnd=<integer>

Here, <integer> is a window handle(HWND). But it didn't work in my Windows 7 machine.

Does anyone have any idea on how to use this option? Or did I do something wrong here?

Thanks,
Derek Wang

It might be broken, yes.

Has there been any updates to this, I can confirm this feature still seems to be broken in windows 10. with VLC 2.2.4
