Hi, I am using vlc android nightly ( ba7b955 2012-11-19 ), what is the correct shell command to start the VideoPlayerActivity and play a udp url ?
this is what I tried :
am start -n org.videolan.vlc/.gui.video.VideoPlayerActivity -d udp://@226.1.1.1:3333 -t video/* -e udp udp://@226.1.1.1:3333

This opens the activity but doesn't play the stream.

I doubt anyone has tried this so far.

See viewtopic.php?f=35&t=103071&p=348366 for how to send an intent, you just have to adjust it to the command line syntax.
