Effects and Filters

[frax]

Hello

Im developing an video application with Libvlc on windows. I like to be able to adjust things like "brightness" and "saturation" is there a way to bringup the "Effects and Filter" dialog and adjust these from there ?

[Rémi Denis-Courmont]

No. That's part of the VLC UI.

Ok . If I like to build a new dialog for this ( adding filters and adjusting parameters on them ) is it possible to adjust parameters and add/remove filters while playing media through Libvlc api?

[Rémi Denis-Courmont]

Some filters are supposed to be exposed but very few. And the guy that wrote that code ran away.

So some LibVLC patching will be needed.

These methods still work don't they?

Code: Select all

LIBVLC_API int libvlc_video_get_adjust_int (libvlc_media_player_t *p_mi, unsigned option) LIBVLC_API void libvlc_video_set_adjust_int (libvlc_media_player_t *p_mi, unsigned option, int value) LIBVLC_API float libvlc_video_get_adjust_float (libvlc_media_player_t *p_mi, unsigned option) LIBVLC_API void libvlc_video_set_adjust_float (libvlc_media_player_t *p_mi, unsigned option, float value)

I use these in my Java bindings to set/get brightness etc on-the-fly, but with my own dialog of course. I have not used them for a while, but they certainly used to work.

I am not sure. I have heard some reports that they did not work, but it could be confused developers too. The code did seem to have some, err, bugs last time I looked at it.

In any case, this is quite a small subset of the audio and video filters.

Fine functions for the "adjust " filter! I did not found them before. But as mentioned before there is more filters. I found that someone worked on a function

Code: Select all

libvlc_set_video_filter(

That seems to do the things im looking for but I dont find it in the source (2.0.1) that I downloaded. Is is something wrong with these functions ?
