Hi all,

I am going through code for VLC, and have noticed an odd thing. The psz prefix is in front of all sorts of things. Does psz mean something in VLC jargon?

PARTIALLY STABILIZED ZIRCONIA, in VLC? Well they do say it can play anything.....

Thanks if you can help me, bye.

Pointer to a String Zero terminated.

pointer to char string, if you prefer.

Thank you,

After that most of the b_, i_ etc started making sense.

And for the guy who searches for psz two years three months from now. http://wiki.videolan.org/Code_Conventions Is the conventions of vlc.

Sorry, is that is a broken link Mr. Future Guy.

PS: For those who don't get this, I always find all email archives of with questions from like 2005, and sometimes years latter someone will say wait that didn't work for me, etc.
