The VideoLAN Forums

I'm using the 0.8.4a control in a C# DVB application and it seems to be very stable. I tried to find out a way to choose between different audio tracks and the only hint in this forum brough me to clearing the playlist and adding a new entry with the :audio-track option. Although this works the change briefly stops the display.

Is there any way to get the audio-track selection as smoothly as in the VLC executable? I though setVariable() would be a way but I found no way (or correct parameter) to do it.

Any hints?

Thanx

in vb you can cycle through the tracks with something like

hotkey = VLCPlugin1.getVariable("key-audio-track")
VLCPlugin1.setVariable "key-pressed", hotkey

or select a track using the option below

":audio-track=1"

I don't know how to select a particular track without another addTarget

I was looking for the same and came to the conclusio as of the time beeing there is no other way. The get/setVariable (which should work on audio-track) doesn't work with this version - so I also use the options.... hopefully in the future version we will have access to all set/getVariables..

(It's sad since you either have a short break or you cannot switch directly to a audiochannel but just circle to the next one with key-pressed)
