Turning off OSD without command line args

[Hanley]

The only solutions I'm finding for turning of osd is to send the "--no-osd" through the libvlc_new() method, BUT the libvlc documentation says not to do it that way anymore. I've searched the documentation, examples and forum and i can't find another way to do it. So, what is the alternative?

[Rémi Denis-Courmont]

As with most settings, they are currently no alternatives. Patch welcome.

I don't think I've got the chops to figure that one out. Am I asking for trouble sending it in through libvlc_new?

[Rémi Denis-Courmont]

If someone ever changes the setting in a future version, libvlc_new() will fail.
