Where to start? (plugin-dev)

Postby enormator » 17 Nov 2009 23:20

Hey

I can do programming in general. I want to begin writing plugins for VLC Player. Can you please tell me where to start? Is there an api reference or anything? I searched in the wiki and the dev wiki but none of those could help me. If there are several different APIs for different languages then I need one with access to the Album Art of the current Track because eventually I want to create a plugin, which makes a Wallpaper from the Album Arts of the most listened songs of the user and applies it as a Desktop Wallpaper.

Ah thanks for the advice. I don't know how I made it to oversee this. I'm sorry for stealing your time.
