OSD Title show forever?

Postby ReD-BaRoN » 27 Jun 2011 20:40

I'm running --no-embedded-video, and need the title to remain on the screen forever. --video-title-timeout does not seem to have a value to disable the timeout, as video-title-timeout=0|-1 don't show the video title at all.

Is there a way to make the title stay on the screen for the duration of the session?

Thanks!

I don't think so... Use the marq video filter module for this.

Hmm, that doesn't seem to work. I'm on a Mac, hopefully that's not the issue. Here's the command I'm running:

Code: Select all

/Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC udp://@239.1.1.80:49410 --no-embedded-video --video-x=0 --video-y=21 --width=320 --height=180 --marq-marquee=test --marq-position=9 &
What am I missing?

Thanks!

No luck :( . Video plays, but no marquee is displayed.

Code: Select all

This looks to be the culprit:

Code: Select all

[0x1030c6708] main filter debug: looking for video filter2 module: 0 candidates [0x1030c6708] main filter debug: no video filter2 module matched "marq" [0x1030c6708] main filter debug: TIMER module_need() : 0.349 ms - Total 0.349 ms / 1 intvls (Avg 0.349 ms) [0x106840b08] main video output error: Failed to create video filter2 'marq' [0x106840b08] main video output error: Failed while trying to append 'marq' to filter chain [0x106840b08] main video output error: Video filter chain creation failed
Possible the Mac build isn't built with it?

EDIT: It's working now, --sub-filter fixed it.

Thanks!
