Problem! libvlc_audio_set_mute doesn't work?

[henrymark]

hi,all,

Itry to use v1.0.5 libvlc.dll libvlc_audio function, but it always tells me that media handle is accessing violation.

Does anyone meet this scenario ? or these funciotn need some init process?? thanks for help.

libvlc 1.0 is buggy. Please update to libvlc 1.1, otherwise we are not going to help you.

Thanks a lot a lot for your quick reply, Rémi Denis-Courmont,

I just try vlc-1.1.0-pre3-20100503-0202-win32-debug.7z from nightly builder, these audio function seems works, BBBUT, double clicked to show fullscreen is gone,

So I need to try libvlc_toggle_fullscreen and it does't work too.

Am I downloading the wrong version?? or it's just my misuse of the fullscreen function ?? I don't know what version I can use?? Thansks!

Anyone try this API to set fullscreen??

[Rémi Denis-Courmont]

I guess you did not read the warning from the documentation:

Code: Select all

* @warning With most window managers, only a top-level windows can be in * full-screen mode. Hence, this function will not operate properly if * libvlc_media_player_set_xid() was used to embed the video in a non-top-level * window. In that case, the embedding window must be reparented to the root * window <b>before</b> fullscreen mode is enabled. You will want to reparent * it back to its normal parent when disabling fullscreen.

Thanks for your reply, Rémi Denis-Courmont !
I just use the libvlc_media_player_set_hwnd to set drawable handle, and I don't know which function I can use to set_hwnd to none to let toggle_fullscreen work?
It's means that I just try to use libvlc_media_player_set_hwnd to none to let fullscreen work, but it's seems not work.
Does anyone know HOW to reparent the window?? Thanks!

[Rémi Denis-Courmont]

You can't do that. If you tell VLC to render in your own window, then you need to implement fullscreen yourself. VLC has no control over your window.

Thanks again, Rémi Denis-Courmont!
But I think when playing the vlc won't forward the mouse event so I can't get the double click event. or any other api can forward the mouse event?
Thanks.

Hi, all
I know v1.0.5 all the audio function not work, but I try the v1.0.5 fullscreen feature, it will reparent and can back to original handle by itself, so vlc can reparent by itself.
So I want to know will we have chance to change handle to let toggle_fullscreen works in future version?? Thanks a lot !
BTW, I think there are still some bugs inside v1.1 about libvlc_audio_set_mute and toggle_mute, because I try several time to set mute and toggle_mute and it will mute forever.

[Rémi Denis-Courmont]

The old reparenting semantic was broken by design. It prevented correct handling of input events in fullscreen mode, and worse, after fullscreen mode.

As for set_mute, this is probably a bug.
