Can I request the VLC to recognize an additional codec?

[badbonez]

I use the Media100 on my mac for editing and it came with a decoder (Media 100 codec.qtx) that I installed in my windows XP box so that I could play Media100 files through QuickTime. Is there a way to get VLC to recognize this codec for playback at least? (I installed this in C:\Windows\System32)

Thanks.

VLC is a stand alone Player and as such it uses its own libraries to decode media files. It does not share filters with Windows ActiveX system. QuickTime is similar as it does not work with Windows ActiveX system. VLC does recognize all of QuickTime's native files and most of Windows media files along with a long list of others.

1. I think you are in the wrong Forum

2. This would be more of a Feature Request that a question.

But I hope this helps

OK, thanks! I don't really understand you about the ActiveX comments, but I guess you are saying that you have to develop VLC to decode specific codes. Which means, no, it cannot read my Media100 files at this time.

And by the way...this is your forum, feel free to move this to requests!

Ya! I've moved! Please consider this a request to include Media100 decoding. Thanks!
