Hi /ALL
Is it posible to display on my php page what my vlc is playing at the moment? Ive googled for hours now and found nothing... The only thing ive found is a Winamp plugin and a script to use with it. Hm... i think if winamp can do this VLC must do it for sure ,but how can this be done??? Maybe this could be done with the webinterface but i have no idea how to do this... Hope somecan help me with this
forgive my bad english...
Thanx in Advance

i need really help with this.... i have a little net tv station running. VLC is playing some videos and displays our .png Logo...via TV-out a other program is captcha and broadcasting via p2p. Some knows a solution for my problem? Is there maybe a HttpQ plugin vor VLC like the one for W*mp who is able to post on php scripts or upload information via ftp of current playing files and playlist? VLC is the only solution for me cuz it is stable, able to hide the gui and displays a .png logo. HELP PLZ

I'm sure that you could come up with a solution using the VLC http interface, and then getting the http://<ip>:<port>/requests/status.xml page in your php and displaying the appropriate fields. (To launch the http interface, use -I http)
