next/forward segment in activex?

Postby sandwiches » 20 Aug 2008 06:11

Hi there,

I've written an app that uses the VLC activeX module successfully, but there's no options for say, next/back chapter selection on dvd. I know this can be done by passing the right arguments to one of the functions in the module, but i'm unsure as of which module and function. Can anyone provide any pointers?

thanks in advance,
sera

according to http://wiki.videolan.org/Documentation: ... d_above.29 it doesnt seem possible yet, please correct me if wrong

maybe you can use the syntax described here : viewtopic.php?f=14&t=47584&p=151335&hil ... er#p151335

Code: Select all

dvd://D:@1:1
then you could start playing the DVD from a certain title/chapter

what i was more referring to was this:

viewtopic.php?f=14&t=10899

apparently i should be able to interface to vlc via the 'key-pressed' command and pass it something (maybe the default keystroke for next/forward chapter in vlc?)

i've tried this but nobody seems to know what the hell the keys are or the syntax is.

yeah but the problem is then that i need to discover somehow from my code what the dvd title/chapters are, and then formulate a playlist from that.. meaning i have to find *another* dvd accessible module to discover the list, and then write code to popualte it...
