I want to use libVLC and synchronize multiple instances. Currently I use libvlc_media_player_set_time(), but the seek takes different amounts of time, so I never get a good sync result. I don't want to use the netsync plugin but provide the functionality my own. I still saw that netsync uses input_ModifyPcrSystem(). I think that way it is able to avoid the problem with the delay. So I thought if libVLC would expose an interface to that method, I could use it to sync on a basis of milliseconds. Is it right that input_ModifyPcrSystem() takes the number of millisecond since the beginning of the media?
Since I synchronize on a timestamp (time when media would have been started from beginning for current position), I would want to use the absolute parameter.
Please correct me if any of my assumptions are wrong.
If the implementation is as easy as described, I would be able to do it, although I would have to setup a build environment. So I want to ask the developers to implement that if it's not taking too much time (and they believe it would be of common use
).Greets
