Does vlc record anything that can be used to measure its
performance from a viewer's perspective? I am interested in
the following statistics described in Wang, Banerjee and
Jamin (Studying Streaming Video Quality: From an Application
Point of View):

average service rate
number of rebuffering events
average rebuffering time
number of missed packets (missed by playback time)
frame rate

Also, does VLC have information on the data rate at which the
video file was encoded? What is the size of the VLC buffer
and is it adjustable without going into the source?

Have any studies been done on VLC performance with streaming
video over variable links (the internet or wireless links)?

Thanks, Dave
