I didn't know, that's still a little hackish but I'll try.

So I guess the next input manager need to handle suchsvariables like "cork".

Are there some other way to signal a cork without accessing obj.parent ?

I can think of this one:

vlc_input_manager *im = vlc_get_main_input_manager(vlc_object);
vlc_im_SignalCork(value);

But then, this won't work if vlc has more than one input manager, VLM ?
