Adding new functionality

Postby Trollslayer » 01 Sep 2007 15:13

With the way I use VLC it would be useful to have a media library function.
This would be a menu item like playlists so I was wondering - is there a guide to add new functions (e.g. with wxWidgets) or do I have to reverse engineer it from an existing function?
Thanks.
:)

Yup, I'm pretty sure that's what he meant. Nightly Builds
