[SOLVED] Telnet in vlc 1.2 does not work ?

Postby Maloupi » 06 Apr 2011 17:36

Hi,

Because of a rtsp problem (viewtopic.php?f=14&t=89543), i have to use the 1.2 build of VLC.
Is there a change in the way to start a telnet interface in 1.2 or a bug ?
Before (with 1.1.8 ) i did like this :

Code: Select all

vlc -I telnet --telnet-port 4100 --telnet-password lalaru
Now the same command seems to works but i cannot connect.

Code: Select all

telnet 127.0.0.1 4100
=> Failed to connect

Code: Select all

Thank you but even if i tried to connect to port 4212 i cannot connect.

Do you already have a date in mind about the release date of vlc 1.2 final ?

No. But most likely it will happen in summer, like 1.0 and 1.1 releases.

I tried with the last 1.2 nighty build of april 2011 and it works well.

Sorry for the noise.
