Mosaic and CLI newbie problems
Posted: 20 Jun 2013 13:28
Hi.
I currently have 3 video streams (actually, only 2 active atm) that I want to mosaic in a single VLC instance. I have three problems with my current setup;
1) It stops after 10 seconds.
The windows and VLC is still up and running, but it the picture doesn't change. If I only show one stream with no mosaic, it works fine. I have a theory of this being related to the background picture that by default only streams for 10 seconds, but all mosaic examples in the doc, doesn't have any duration=-1 settings and if I try to add it on the input line, I get no picture at all.
2) It opens 3 Direct3D windows, one per stream (=2) and the mosaic stream. I only want the mosaic stream. Or at the very least, only show the mosaic in fullscreen. Currently all 3 are fullscreen and it's completely random which window ends up on top.
3) There seems to be a memory leak
It keeps eating up all available memory (total of 4GB RAM) until it crashes. This might be related to something wrong I do in 1) though. Also, this is windows version 2.0.7 but it also happens in 2.0.2 and 2.0.6.
Here's my config:
mosaic.vlm.conf:
(Since channel3 is down, I'm not playing it.)
