Hi there,

I'm developping a vlc player with some controls and it work fine for now,

I already add the "SetAudioTrack" to choose audio track and it work fine, with this code :

Code: Select all

            _VlcOptionAudio.SetItemChecked(e.Position, true); // the position is choose by the client from a list
            _mediaPlayer.SetAudioTrack(e.Position);
            _player.Release();

But when i use the same code to add subtitles nothing appends :

Code: Select all

            _VlcOptionSubtiles.SetItemChecked(e.Position, true);
            _mediaPlayer.SetSpuTrack(e.Position);
            _player.Release();

Do i need to do something more ? Like adding a view, or something with VlcVout ?

That depends on what your LibVLC wrapper API expects.

This might help (android example):

Code: Select all

private SurfaceView mSubtitlesSurface = null;

//in onCreate()
if (HWDecoderUtil.HAS_SUBTITLES_SURFACE) {
            final ViewStub stub = (ViewStub) findViewById(R.id.subtitles_stub);
            mSubtitlesSurface = (SurfaceView) stub.inflate();
            mSubtitlesSurface.setZOrderMediaOverlay(true);
            mSubtitlesSurface.getHolder().setFormat(PixelFormat.TRANSLUCENT);
}

//in onStart()
final IVLCVout vlcVout = mMediaPlayer.getVLCVout();
        vlcVout.setVideoView(mVideoSurface);
        if (mSubtitlesSurface != null)
            vlcVout.setSubtitlesView(mSubtitlesSurface);
        vlcVout.attachViews();
        mMediaPlayer.getVLCVout().addCallback(this);
