[vlc-devel] how to get Notification about Pause / Play / Stop / Continue inside Filter Module?

[Andre Weber]

Hello,

since some days I work on a video filter module, until now it works so far - but now
I reached a point where I need some help or a simple hint -
What I have to implement to get notified if the video output gets paused, stopped
or continued?

I have tried to add a callback to the variable "state" inside my filter init method:

var_AddCallback( p_sys->p_vout, "state", StateCallback, p_vout );

like I saw it in another module but my callbackfunction is never called?
I can't debug it - I have only msg_Dbg added - but my messages gets never printed ...

Is there another way? doing that?


With best regards

André
