[vlc-devel] Re: External Application for controling VLC player

[Mark Moriarty]

Treat rc as an API -- take a look at the functions it already has, you may
not need to extend it at all, just have your front end send the appropriate
commands to the RC interface via a socket.

Subject: [vlc-devel] External Application for controling VLC player


Dear List,
I'm really new with VLC. I need to do a DEMO application using the VLC
player with my own interface... in other words, I need to control the VLC
player from a external application.. the idea is to execute simple commands
like play pre-established items, up and down the volume, etc with single
keys . What are my possibilites? To use sockets, edit the rc.c file.. ? I
suppose this is a trivial question for you, but I would really like to get
some ideas. Maybe any one has an example?

Thanks in advance!

Sergio
