Disable Filename from displaying on Activex control in VBA

[herodaddy829]

Hi all,

I have an MSAccess DB that I am using the embeded VLC player in a form for displaying help videos. I have it work almost perfectly for what I need but I cannot seem to figure out the code to remove the file name from displaying when the movie plays. Is there a way to disable this? I am a bit of a rookie so I am not sure what info to give that would helpful but if you ask I can provide.

Thanks!

Do you have VLC 1.0.x ActiveX version? Its you must edit plugin c++ source code and compile an own version. Weird thing is its Firefox plugin hides a filename, but ActiveX plugin shows it. I think VLC 1.1.x beta version hides a filename titling in both plugin versions.

I took a latest 1.0.x git source codes, hacked activex plugin to disable a filename titling and compiled it. Feel free to give it a try or compile yourself an own release. This archive is just an activex library, I did not upload an entire binary release (33MB). Maybe it works with vlc1.0.5 binary or not. Let me know how it goes.
vlc-1.0.6-git_activex.zip

Funny part is Mozilla vlc1.0.x plugin disables a filename titling, but ActiveX does not disable a same option

Another option is to use a latest vlc-1.1.x nightly build release, but its not marked as a stable release.

- fullscreen mode does not work
+ both activex and mozilla plugin disables a filename titling

or you can do this way more easy

axVLCPlugin21.playlist.items.clear();
axVLCPlugin21.playlist.add(URL, null , ":no-video-title-show");
axVLCPlugin21.playlist.playItem(0);
