I have tried the activex in VS2005 from C# in a forms app.

after adding a reference to the activeX under the COM tab and adding the control to the form from the toolbox, I used the following code to test the video and the logo methods.

Code: Select all

            int id = axVLCPlugin21.playlist.add("rtsp://172.16.100.181:554/mpeg4/media.amp", "camera", null);
            axVLCPlugin21.playlist.play();
            Thread.Sleep(500);
            axVLCPlugin21.video.logo.file("http://localhost/logo.png");
            axVLCPlugin21.video.logo.opacity = 150;
            axVLCPlugin21.video.logo.enable();

hope this helps you out.

p.s. the sleep was needed for the logo to work.

thanks for the reply.

yes you can give an http link. the second param is just a name, can be whatever you like.

If you are unsure if the http link works in vlc. use the main vlc player application and select file open network stream and enter the http link here.

das ist auch kein Problem ihr müsst euch ein Logo machen und das vor den Player mit eine Picturebox einbinden und in den Timer

diese Funktion rein setzen

wenn ihr diese Funktion nicht habt, dann gebe ich euch die

Code: Select all

Function formatTime(ByVal timeVal As Integer)
        Dim timeHour As Integer
        Dim timeSec As Integer
        Dim timeMin As Integer
        timeHour = Math.Round(timeVal \ 1000)
        timeSec = timeHour Mod 60
        If timeSec < 10 Then
            timeSec = "00" & timeSec
            timeHour = (timeHour - timeSec) \ 60
            timeMin = timeHour Mod 60
        End If

        If timeMin < 10 Then
            timeMin = "00" & timeMin
            timeHour = (timeHour - timeMin) \ 60
        End If

        If timeHour < 0 Then
            Return timeHour & ":" & timeMin & ":" & timeSec
        Else
            Return timeHour & ":" & timeSec
        End If

    End Function

Code: Select all

 Private Sub Timer1_Tick(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
        With TrackBar1
            .Value = AxVLCPlugin21.input.Time
            .Maximum = AxVLCPlugin21.input.Length
        End With

        Label7.Text = formatTime(AxVLCPlugin21.input.Time.ToString)
        Label9.Text = formatTime(AxVLCPlugin21.input.Length.ToString)
        If Label7.Text = "0:1" Then
            PictureBox9.Hide()
        End If
        If Timer1.Enabled = False Then
            PictureBox9.Show()

        End If


    End Sub

damit klappt es auf jeden Fall, denn so Funkt es bei mir auch

Hier habe ich noch einen zweiten beispiel, ich habe einen Filter eingesetzt, was mir ermöglicht, die Filter in eine If Schleife zu setzen, wenn z.b mp3 oder wav ab Spielt, dann wird das Logo bestehen bleiben, wenn ein Video gespielt wird geht dieses Logo verschwinden...

Code: Select all

If op.FilterIndex = 2 = True Then
            If Label7.Text = "0:1" = True Then
                PictureBox9.Hide()
                AxVLCPlugin21.FullscreenEnabled = True
                AxVLCPlugin21.Toolbar = True
            End If
        End If

        If op.FilterIndex = 1 Then
            PictureBox9.Show()
            AxVLCPlugin21.FullscreenEnabled = False
            AxVLCPlugin21.Toolbar = False

        End If
