Replacing the Cone
Posted: 16 Jul 2010 17:22
when no video is playing VLC has an image of a cone in its center
is it possible to replace that image with a skin, even if all I do is make it blank, or is that cone hard coded into the executable? I am not really worried about the rest of the interface side of things, since my plan is to run VLC full screen and control it via HTTP or Telnet
Basically I am trying to make a video player, and when nothing is currently playing, i would like, if possible a black screen. I can sort of get around this right now by queuing up a bitmap of all black, but this has issues if i need to stop a video mid play.
