[vlc-devel] [RFC PATCH 0/8] Allow renderer to change during playback V2

[Hugo Beauzée-Luyssen]

Hi,

This is the 2nd attempt at changing renderers during playback.
The demux filters are not removed from the chain anymore, but instead are disabled
I do realize that the first patch is the same than the older serie, but I really don't see any other way.

So far this works quite well in practice, and gives the user a much more pleasant experience when casting content

Regards,

Hugo Beauzée-Luyssen (8):
  input: Allow the sout to change on the fly
  input: Allow demux_filter to be enabled/disabled
  input: Add INPUT_CONTROL_SET_RENDERER
  playlist: Add playlist_SetRenderer
  input: Provide the potential renderer upon input item creation
  qt: actions_manager: Rework renderer handling
  chromecast: Implement DEMUX_FILTER_ENABLE/DISABLE
  chromecast_demux: Probe the actual demux for seeking capabilities
