lua file location information on source code.

Postby sanmool » 26 Nov 2023 17:30

Hi

I am working on a youtube video player for mobile devices. libvlc looks good fit.
According to
https://wiki.videolan.org/Documentation ... t_Scripts/
I can put my own lua file on VLC's preferences folder "lua/playlist" subdirectory on Windows or Mac OS X and in your local VLC shared data folder on Linux (~/.local/share/vlc/lua/playlist).

I put my youtube.lua file to ~/.local/share/vlc/lua/playlist and it worked. but I don't know which directory I should put youtube.lua file to play youtube video on Mobile devices (Android/Iphone).
So I looked for where the information about the directories(e.g. ~/.local/share/vlc/lua/playlist) is stored in source code. But I could not find it.

Does anyone know where the directories(e.g. ~/.local/share/vlc/lua/playlist) information is stored in source code?

That would be

Code: Select all

/sdcard/Android/data/org.videolan.vlc/lua/playlist/
but you really should not be messing with user data directories.

As far as I know, Lua is not supported on iPhone, due to Apple rulings.
