List of available interfaces

[zzantozz]

According to the "Interfaces" wiki page, you can list available interfaces using "vlc -l". When I run that in VLC 2.0.1 (at least on Windows--haven't tested version 2 on linux), the "rc" and "http" interfaces aren't mentioned anywhere. They seem to be listed as "lua". In fact, there's a whole chunk of "lua" in the output:

Code: Select all

lua Lua interpreter lua Lua interpreter lua French TV lua Freebox TV lua Lua SD Module lua Lua Extension lua Fetch artwork using lua scripts lua Lua Playlist Parser Interface lua Read meta data using lua scripts lua Fetch meta data using lua scripts lua Lua Telnet lua Remote control interface lua Lua HTTP

I'm guessing that "Lua Telnet", "Remote control interface", and "Lua HTTP" correspond to the telnet, rc, and http interfaces, respectively, but how can I get VLC to tell me the actual list of interface names that I can give to the --intf and --extraintf options?

you can use -Ihttp and -Irc like before
