both rc and telnet extra interfaces at same time

Postby StevieG » 12 Nov 2006 00:28

This command line:
vlc --extraintf rc,telnet --rc-host :4444 --telnet-host :5555
- only allows a connection to either rc or telnet interface but not both (whichever is first in the list).

I would like to be able to connect to both in the same instance of vlc in order to control both the vlm and the local instance of vlc.

What is the limitation on this? Is it something I could modify in the code?

Maybe the telnet interface could simply have a command to switch between the current interfaces:
mode rc
mode vlm
