sout problem on 1.0.0 RC3 ActiveX

[socialjazz]

I am using ActiveX on client and tested with the following sout to record a stream without encoding:
:sout=#duplicate{dst=display,dst=std{access=file,mux=asf,dst=FileName}}
It works on 0.9.9 and versions below it, but it does nothing on 1.0.0RC3

Can anyone tell me if it is a bug or there is a newer recording options string for this new VLC?

Initiating a sout through an ActiveX (or mozilla-plugin) will not work.
Those two interfaces can be used by remote guys (using craft webpages for example) to corrupt your computer. Now, only options tagged as "safe" inside VLC source code can be used by the ActiveX and sout can obviously not be tagged as safe (it can overwrite files, add others with special names to crash your computer, etc).

oh my goodness, they have removed this feature in the latest ActiveX?
so can i still record streaming URL with ActiveX? Any new API or anything?

"so can i still record streaming URL with ActiveX?"
-> I don't think.

"Any new API or anything?"
-> Don't think neither, not in the way security concerns are going :)
