DirectShow broken on the latest VLC nightly build

Postby charlest » 03 Jul 2007 07:30

On the latest VLC build, I think the Capture Device of DirectShow has been broken.
This is because, when I try to select the "Video Device Name", the pull-down control does not response.
The "Audio Device Name" has the same problem.

However, the above controls work on the latest VLC build.

If this is bug? If so, is this the right place for bug posting?

I know. You have to use the old interface (-Iwx) or wait.

Thanks for your reply.

I'm new in VLC nightly build, for the workaround, do I input the (-lwx) when I launch the vlc.exe?

Yes and is it 'capital 'i'', not 'l'

I've launched VideoLAN by "vlc -Iwx" from a command prompt within the "vlc-0.9.0-svn" directory.

Unfortunately, I'm getting the same problem.
That is, when I try to select the "Video Device Name" from DirectShow capture mode, the pull-down control does not response. The "Audio Device Name" has the same problem.

Shouldn't there be a space between -I and wx ?
