The VideoLAN Forums

Hi everyone!. This is my first question. I need to embed VLC (or libvlc) in a windows 8.1 Store App to stream video from an ACTI Ip camera using GET_STREAM commands, rtsp or anything else. In older wpf windows forms there was a developers version which include a toolbox ob objects to embed VLC.

Any of you know any useful solution to stream (and show cam im preview) from an ip Camera using VLC in windows 8.1 Metro Apps?.

Thanks in advance developers!

You can use libVLCX to do that.

Thanks for your reply. I am developing Windows 8.1 app, not UWP. Im using C# languaje. When im trying to install LibVLCX using nuget package manager i have the following error:

Could not install package 'libVLCX 0.9.3'. You are trying to install this package into a project that targets 'Windows,Version=v8.1', but the package does not contain any assembly references or content files that are compatible with that framework. For more information, contact the package author.

I dont know if it is totally compatible, hope it will works.

Thaks!!

Ok, it's doable to downgrade it to Win8.1 but it might not be trivial.
