hi,

Is the splash screen support referred to here: https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/changeset/413 active in vlc, if so, how can i use it to force a splash screen to be sent to the clients making a vod request?

i am asking the question here because i dint find any pointers in the --longhelp option with the vlc command or anywhere else in the docs. so please provide me some link that will help me to achieve the goal.

thank you in advance.

I am afraid you dug a very old commit (2000) and this part of code no longer exist.

For your question, i don't hink it's currently possible.

Well done you look at all the good place. I think your idea is good and i'll add it to Trac.

Hi Xtophe,

Thank you for the immediate response. Hope the splash screen feature will be part of the future releases.
