Crop specific playlist entries

Postby AZLan » 25 Oct 2011 19:36

Hello,

I am trying to crop specific entries of a playlist.

Here is my example .xspf playlist :

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <playlist version="1" xmlns="http://xspf.org/ns/0/" xmlns:vlc="http://www.videolan.org/vlc/playlist/ns/0/"> <title>My example playlist</title> <trackList> <track> <location>rtsp://mafreebox.freebox.fr/fbxtv_pub/stream?namespace=1&service=201&flavour=ld</location> <title>France 2 </title> <creator>2</creator> <extension application="http://www.videolan.org/vlc/playlist/0"> <vlc:id>0</vlc:id> </extension> </track> <track> <location>rtsp://mafreebox.freebox.fr/fbxtv_pub/stream?namespace=1&service=767&flavour=ld</location> <title>Clubbing TV </title> <creator>72</creator> <extension application="http://www.videolan.org/vlc/playlist/0"> <vlc:id>31</vlc:id> <vlc:option>crop=16:9</vlc:option> </extension> </track> </trackList> </playlist>
Same one in .m3u format, easier to read :

Code: Select all

#EXTM3U #EXTINF:0,2 - France 2 rtsp://mafreebox.freebox.fr/fbxtv_pub/stream?namespace=1&service=201&flavour=ld #EXTINF:0,72 - Clubbing TV #EXTVLCOPT:crop=16:9 rtsp://mafreebox.freebox.fr/fbxtv_pub/stream?namespace=1&service=767&flavour=ld
As you can see, I want the second entry to be cropped @16/9.
If I start playing the first entry, when I will switch to the second one, it will not be cropped.

For the second entry to be cropped, I have to stop the playback and start it directly on this second entry.

Is there anything to do to crop entries "on the fly", without having to stop the playback ?

Thank you very much,

Best regards,

AZLan

Also note that crop option in playlists does not work anymore with VLC 2.0.x.
Is there something do to do get it work again ?

I cannot make it work either.

I am using this code:

Code: Select all

<track> <location>file:///F:/My%20Videos/3V%20-%20Screening%20-%202014-01-26/AN%20petit%20mineur.vlc</location> <duration>21130</duration> <extension application="http://www.videolan.org/vlc/playlist/0"> <vlc:id>2</vlc:id> <vlc:option>video-filter=croppadd</vlc:option> <vlc:option>croppadd-cropleft=200</vlc:option> <vlc:option>file-caching=300</vlc:option> </extension> </track>
I have tried various scaling filters but none are applied to my playlist item...
