AxVLCPlugin21 debug output

Postby KalleC » 18 Mar 2018 18:49

Hi,

I am building a tool under VB using AxVLCPlugin21 and need access to the debug messages like the verbosity=2 messages from the message box on vlc.exe.

Is there a way to display these message in a VB textbox while playing a stream or local file?

Kind regards

KalleC

Hello,

Logs messages are not exposed through the AxVLCPlugin API. Could you use the C library directly or .net bindings?

Thanks for your reply. That's probably not a solution for me.

On Windows the messages are sent through OutputDebugMessage so you should be able to receive them in a debugger (or a standalone app which name I forgot).

hello, the standalone app is DebugView (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysint ... /debugview)

If you want to get your hands dirty you might have a look at (not tested):
