-I rc stopped working (after security update?)

[Nick_Name]

hi list,

Code: Select all

./VLC -I rc --rc-host=localhost:1234

used to work fine, now since i try again i get:

Code: Select all

[00000001] main libvlc debug: VLC media player - version 0.9.8 Grishenko - (c) 1996-2008 the VideoLAN team [00000001] main libvlc debug: libvlc was configured with ./configure '--enable-release' '--enable-update-check' '--with-macosx-sdk=/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk' 'PKG_CONFIG_PATH=:/opt/local/lib/pkgconfig:/opt/local/lib/pkgconfig' [00000001] main libvlc debug: translation test: code is "de" Remote-Control-Interface initialisiert.

[00000387] main interface error: socket bind error (Permission denied) [00000387] main interface error: socket bind error (Permission denied) [00000387] main interface error: socket bind error (Permission denied)

this used to not launch the gui, now it does.
when i type help now, i get no output. actually i want to use an additional interface since i could not get the video to work in rc mode on the mac.

so i tried:
./VLC --extraintf=rc --rc-host=localhost:1234

i get:

how do i get vlc with video controlled properly via command line on the mac?

What about just ./VLC -Irc ?

[Nick_Name]

Code: Select all

./VLC -lrc

gives back:

and quits.

arg. stupid.
yes, that works as expected.
what is the correct syntax to start vlc with extraintf rc so that i may use the command line to display video?
