Hi

Is it possible to play DVB-T device using ActiveX in MFC? In console i can let VLC play DVB-T device through this command

Code: Select all

dvb:// :dvb-adapter=0 :dvb-frequency=593000000 :dvb-srate=8 :dvb-bandwidth=6 :program=501

but while i use ActiveX in MFC, and this command didn't seem to work. Did I miss anything?

Code: Select all

BSTR option = SysAllocString(_T(":dvb-adapter=0 :dvb-frequency=593000000 :dvb-srate=8 :dvb-bandwidth=6 :program=501"));
VARIANT va;
VariantInit( &va );
va.bstrVal = option;
pvlc->addTarget(_T("dvb://"), va, 0, 1);
pvlc->play();

I am using vlc 1.0.5, ActiveX v1 under Windows 7.

Can anyone help me with this >< , Thanks.

I believe the issue is the program selection...

I thought my parameters cause this error. So I've changed my code and this also does not seem to work

Can anyone help me with this. Thanks.

Code: Select all

	COleSafeArray saOptions;
	saOptions.Clear();
	BSTR bsOptions[5];
	bsOptions[0]=SysAllocString(L":dvb-adapter=0");
	bsOptions[1]=SysAllocString(L":dvb-frequency=593000000");
	bsOptions[2]=SysAllocString(L":dvb-srate=8");
	bsOptions[3]=SysAllocString(L":dvb-bandwidth=6");
	bsOptions[4]=SysAllocString(L":program=501");

	saOptions.CreateOneDim(VT_BSTR,5,bsOptions);

	CString sTarget = L"dvb://";
	pvlc->addTarget(sTarget, saOptions, 0, 1);
	pvlc->play();

Best regards,

Do I presume that when using activex the "program=xxx" is ignored?

If so I suspected this for a while as a lot of people have similar issues using activx in a webpage and I am having issue with the very same parameters in Delphi with DVB-T application.

Will this be fixed in the new 1.1 version. Eg Has the activex library been updated for this to work?

If not how can I be of help in updating the activex objects for it to work?

Kind Regards
David
