Change Image Duration

Postby CutmanCometh » 31 May 2014 02:18

I've put together a playlist that includes both video and images. The images all default to displaying for 10 seconds. I would like to change this display time, but I can't find any option to do it.

I've tried exporting the playlist as XML and changing the duration in a text editor like so:

Code: Select all

<duration>10000</duration>
becomes

Code: Select all

<duration>22000</duration>
but VLC seems to simply ignore that altered value.

I also saw on this post https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.ph ... 7&p=383522
where the admin said to use the preferences for the image demuxer, but I can't figure out how to access those preferences. Do I have to compile VLC from source and change that option in the relevant .c file? And if so, does that mean I have to recompile VLC every time I want to change the image duration? Or is there a way to access the image demuxer prefs that I'm not aware of?

Thank you in advance!!
