Hi,

I'm using LibVLC.dll under C# and sometimes if I and a file to the VLC-Playlist with VLC_AddTarget the method returns 4.
Whats that for an Error and how could I avoid them?

Nobody knows this?!?
No one of the developers here?

I'm using the following wrapper to use VLC in C#:
http://www.nht-center.net/VLC.net_Main.cs

And the following code to add the File to the VLC:

Code: Select all

options = new string[] { ":sout=#standard{access=udp,mux=ts,dst=" + RemoteIP + ":" + Port + "}", 
":no-one-instance", ":no-loop", ":no-drop-late-frames" };

VLC.Error err = vlc.AddTarget(VideoFile, options);
if (err == VLC.Error.Success)
{
    err = vlc.Play();
    if (err == VLC.Error.Success)
    {
        err = vlc.Next();

        if (err != VLC.Error.Success)
        {
            if (vlc.IsPlaying)
            {
                Message.Enqueue("Starting Video Stream: " + VideoFile + " on Port " + Port);
                OnStatusMessage(EventArgs.Empty);
            }
            else
            {
                Message.Enqueue("Error starting to stream " + VideoFile + " on Port " + Port + ": VLC is not playing - " + vlc.GetError());
                OnStatusMessage(EventArgs.Empty);
            }
        }
        else
        {
            Message.Enqueue("Error selecting the target " + VideoFile + " on Port " + Port + ": " + vlc.GetError());
            OnStatusMessage(EventArgs.Empty);
        }
    }
    else
    {
        Message.Enqueue("Error playing the stream " + VideoFile + " on Port " + Port + ": " + vlc.GetError());
        OnStatusMessage(EventArgs.Empty);
    }
}
else
{
    Message.Enqueue("Error adding target " + VideoFile + " on Port " + Port + ": " + vlc.GetError());
    OnStatusMessage(EventArgs.Empty);
}

Where VideoFile is the Filename including the Path to the File.
I got sometime the return of 4 (unkonwn error) at the VLC_AddTarget() method, but sometimes it works.
