enabling "Adjust" from cmd [Win/vlc0.7.2]

Is there a way to enable the "Adjust Image" settings from the Windows command line -- or to make it enabled by default within 'Preferences'?

I'm streaming a directshow input and having 'chroma' issues on the client machine (a known issue).

I couldn't seem to get the server to force the chroma setting (I tried ":dshow-chroma="YV12"). So now I've been trying to set the proper hue on the client end (as a workaround). I can do this manually fine. When I try to set it from the command line (e.g. "--hue 128"), it doesn't seem to register because I haven't enabled "Adjust Image".

Many thanks for an outstanding piece of software.

add --video-filter=adjust

This will activate the adjust filter, --hue will set the hue value of this filter.

didn't seem to work. :(

I tried several variations of the syntax for "--video-filter=adjust" to no avail. It keeps telling me 'command line options couldn't be loaded, check that they are valid.'

My command looks like:

> vlc udp: --video-filter=adjust --hue 180
OR
> vlc udp: --video-filter adjust --hue 180
OR
> vlc udp: :video-filter=adjust -- hue 180

Any other suggestions?

nevermind...

...I figured it out.

The syntax was just: "--filter adjust --hue X"

works fine now. Thanks.
