Hello. I am using libvlc. I want to clear surface after stop player. Here is my stop codes. Nothing works as I expected.

Code: Select all

	
	libvlc_media_player_set_hwnd(m_player->core(), (void*)0);
	libvlc_media_player_stop(m_player->core());
	libvlc_media_player_release(m_player->core());
	libvlc_release(m_instance->core());

How can I get black screen after stop?

That's obviously out of scope. How would a LibVLC player paint when you have destroyed it?!

No, it's obviously not.

I want to clear surface after stop player.

This isn't currently done by libvlc, you will have to clear the surface yourself after stop. It has been reported to me before (https://code.videolan.org/videolan/LibV ... issues/260) and it appears several libvlc users expect libvlc to clear the surface after stop is called.
