screencapture of libVLC based software

Postby danielfigueiredo » 26 May 2021 11:45

Good morning.
I have the issue posted at https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/vl ... en.128307/ .
But this time isn't the vlc the program, the program is something like an vlc library base OR vlc base program. The program don't allow me to show as windows gdi video output or even change this aspect. I think the program is vlc java library based.
The display capture option from obs works fine but the problem is that i cant use it because im trying to use obs as a projection software to capture the window of the main projection software(the window with this problem) and mix it with videofeed from an videocall. One scene with only the main projection software and another scene with the main projection software and the videocamera feed.
Is possible to install another windows capture methods on obs.
I tried to use the VLC source on OBS as screencapture method too and this method can capture the screen correctly but only can capture all display and not an hidden window specific(the window behind obs projector).
Can i force the libvlc to be loaded with some video configuration?

your link is dead. Without code it's hard to know what you're asking for. Maybe this helps https://wiki.videolan.org/VLC_command-line_help

The VLC source in OBS embeds LibVLC directly within the OBS process. It does not, and cannot, embed the VLC or any other LibVLC-based app. To record another application in OBS, you have to use some other mean.

Please refer to the OBS documentation.
