VLC Winfroms --video-filter=transform

[davidturley]

So here goes my first post.

I am developing a camera streaming app, and i need to be able to rotate the output image.
The source is a dshow device.

When creating my Winforms vlc player i have tried giving it "--video-filter=transform" as an option and then using ":transform-type=90" when actually starting the stream, but this yields a black screen.
I now have to resort to disposing of the vlc instance and creating a new instance and passing the "--video-filter=transform", "--transform-type=90" ect.

Am i doing it wrong, or is this a limitation of vlc winforms.

Thanks and have a nice day!
David

Video filters are set per player, not per input. Using options is anyway not supported except via the CLI.
