How change server-port 8080 on VLC for Windows

Postby Berndl » 15 Mar 2006 20:06

Hello,

I have a problem with VLC 0.8.4.

I must change the port 8080, because this port is now in user of my virus-scanner-console.

But how can I change it? I do not find something. I only found udp-port 1234. But if I change this port to 8081, I can not connect to this port with "telnet localhost 8081"

Please help me.

Karl

note that the http interface will automaticall try to use 8081 if 8080 is already used, and 8082 if 8081 was also used ... and so on.

Try this command for changing to port 8888 (Windows)

vlc --extraintf http --http-host "0.0.0.0:8888"
