Subtitles from rc dont work

Postby roberto » 18 Feb 2011 09:42

Hello.
I have a problem to start subtitles from rc.
I can do it from GUI perfectly, but I dont know how to start subtitles from rc.
I try "strack 1", "strack 2", ... but ever it responds: "strack: returned 0 (no error)" but i can not see subtitles in the screen.
I try some differents ways to start vlc: "vlc -I qt --lua-config "rc=´host='localhost:4212'}" -extraintf=rc -S sap"
I have tryed it in Windows with vlc 1.1.7 and in Debian with vlc 1.1.3 with the same result.

Other commands like stop, start, playlist, etc. from rc work OK.

Somebody know how to start subtitles from rc?

Thanks in advance.

Yes, it works in oldrc!!!

If I start vlc from a cmd window with:
vlc -I qt
It says:
[02eb6b34] oldrc interface: VLC media player - 1.1.4 The Luggage
[02eb6b34] oldrc interface: Copyright 1996-2010 the VideoLAN team
[02eb6b34] oldrc interace:
I can write:
strack
and it responds:
+----[ Pista de subtitulos ]
| -1 - Deshabilitar *
| 102 - Teletexto - [Espanol]
| 111 - Sutitulos DVB - [Espanol]
+----[end of Pista de Subtitulos]
and with the next command I can start the subtitles:
strack 111
and it works perfectly.

But when I start rc interface with:
vlc -I rc --lua-config "rc={host='localhost:4212'}" -S sap
and I connect from a telnet window to 'localhost:4212', the same command do not work.

Any Idea?
It could be a bug?

I just got the same problem,
I was looking for any solution on google and found this topic.
Is this problem going to be fixed or it has already been fixed?
