List of VLC status codes?

Postby ich2 » 05 Dec 2005 15:11

Hello everybody!

Is there a list of the status-codes the VLC media player prints to the stderr?

What I mean are these codes at the beginning of the lines:
[00000263] dummy interface: Using the dummy interface module...
[00000278] mux_ogg private: Open
[00000281] access_http access: Raw-audio server found, mp3 demuxer selected

And the thing I would need is a list that explains all codes and their meanings.

I haven't found anything like this neither in the documentation nor in the source code.

Any hint to where to find such a list would be great!

Hello,

There are not status codes but object ids.

Each "thing" in VLC (the core, the playlist, the access, the demuxers, the decoders, audio and video outputs, font rendering engine, streaming engine, http server, ....) is an "object". Each VLC object has an identifier, which is printed at the beginning of the year. The first time you see this id will help you find out what object it is more precisely

Hi Zorglub!

Thank you very much for your answer!

However, it's a bit disappointing I had completely misinterpreted these numbers. So, for recognizing VLC error messages in another program, the only possiblity seems to be parsing the message text printed by VLC?
