i guess that it was something like C) :p

The best way to do some kind of an event is:
 * create a VLC variable in p_libvlc
 * add a callback on this variable
 * change the variable's value every time you want the callback to be
   called (sounds kind of obvious :) )

Examples of callback usage can be found about everywhere in the source
code. Look for these functions:
 * var_Create (variable creation)
 * var_Set / var_Get (some specialised versions of these functions
   exist, see include/variables.h)
 * var_AddCallback

I hope that this small email helps,
