Hi every body ;
I'm developing a VOD web application based on VLC ;
so I prepare a program in java which can start a new instance each time a client click on a video.
But the problem in the starting of VLC server , each time a message displayed appear in a black box saying
" the command line options couldn't be loaded, check that they are valid"
that's my code function which can start a new instance of VLC server, the parameters are inserted manually, PLZ check for me this code , I'm certain that the line options is correct , so what's the problem , thx in advance

Code: Select all

//____________Initialisation___________________________________________________

        String ClientIP = "0.0.0.0";
        int TelnetPort;
        String Password="azerty";
        int RTSPHost;
        String FilmFileName="The_Film";
        String FilePath="d:\\films\\Defiance\\Defiance.avi";
        //StartNewInstance(ClientIP, TelnetPort, Password, RTSPHost);

       
     /*   System.out.print("Entrer ClientIP:\n");
        ClientIP=sc.nextLine();
        System.out.print("Entrer Password:\n");
        Password=sc.nextLine();

        System.out.print("Entrer FilmFileName:\n");
        FilmFileName=sc.nextLine();
        System.out.print("Entrer FilePath:\n");
        FilePath=sc.nextLine();
*/
//____________RTSPHostGenerate__________________________________________________

     System.out.print("Entrer RTSPHost:\n");
     RTSPHost=sc.nextInt();
        /*    int RTSPHost_int = 5500;
            Random RTSPHost_random = new Random();
            RTSPHost = (int) (RTSPHost_random.nextInt(500)+RTSPHost_int);
            System.out.print(RTSPHost+"\n");*/

//____________TelentPortGenerate________________________________________________

      System.out.print("Entrer TelnetPort:\n");
      TelnetPort=sc.nextInt();
      /*      int TelnetPort_int=4200;
            Random TelnetPort_random = new Random();
            TelnetPort = (int) (TelnetPort_random.nextInt(500)+TelnetPort_int);
            System.out.println(TelnetPort+"\n");*/

        String arguments = "--ttl 12 -vvv --color -I telnet --telnet-password "+Password+" --telnet-port "+TelnetPort+" --rtsp-host "+ClientIP+":"+RTSPHost;
        System.out.print(arguments);

        String[] cmd={
                       commande,
                       arguments
                     };
        String cmd1=commande+" "+arguments;

       
        Runtime r = Runtime.getRuntime();
        p = r.exec(cmd);
        p.getOutputStream().close();
        p.getInputStream().close();
       // exitStatus = p.waitFor();
       // System.out.println(exitStatus);
      //  System.out.println(p.exitValue());

      //  ProcessBuilder p1= new ProcessBuilder(cmd);
      //  p1.start();
        

        /*if (exitStatus == 0){System.out.println("Process Starting");}
         }
     
        finally {
    			if ( exitStatus != 0 && p != null ) {
    				System.out.println("Process Error");
    			}
    			p = null;
    		}*/
