Stop playing song in a stream filter plugin

[j_vlc]

Hi!

I need to stop "Peek" a multimedia file in my stream filter plugin if an error occurs. I'm doing it like that:

Code: Select all

static int Peek(stream_t *stream, const uint8_t **pbuf, unsigned int len) { stream_sys_t *p_sys = stream->p_sys; if (stream->b_error) return VLC_EGENERIC; QByteArray peekBuffer = p_sys->bufferManager->getBuffer(p_sys->offset, len); if (peekBuffer.isNull()) { stream->b_error = true; return VLC_EGENERIC; } *pbuf = (const uint8_t *)peekBuffer.constData(); return len; }

It stops correctly, but the "Errors and Warnings" window appears when I stop the song like that with a "VLC can not recognize the input format" error.

Someone can help me to stop the song without show this windows please?
Thank you very much!

Just return 0.

The same problem returning 0... I'm testing with the Mac OS X user interface, I don't know if it happens with the Qt interface too. Thanks for the rapid answer!

Peek() is mostly called in file format probing phase. If it fails, VLC will always shows the error message.

Ok! Thank you very much, I'll try to bypass this problem as possible...
