There is compile error at
if (m_iVlcHandle < m_strlasterror = "Failed to create VLC instance" strinitoptions =" {"> 0)
Yes, I get errors at the same point.
"m_strlasterror" and "strinitoptions " are not valid at that point in the code.
Unfortunately I don't have the C# skills to fix this, does anyone have any advice?
Si.
I've commented out the error checking code in the Initialize() method, but then I get an error at runtime, "An attempt was made to load a program in the incorrect format, HRESULT 0x8007000B".
I guess this means there's an error loading the VLC DLL?
So you people did'nt find any way to fix this bug....
em too facing same problem.
Is there any other way to Run VLC-Player in C#....
This is the correct version of the Initialize() method:
public bool Initialize()
{
// check if already initializes
if(m_iVlcHandle != -1)
return true;
// try init
try
{
// create instance
m_iVlcHandle = VLC_Create();
if (m_iVlcHandle < 0)
{
m_strLastError = "Failed to create VLC instance";
return false;
}
// make init optinons
string[] strInitOptions = { "vlc",
"--no-one-instance",
"--no-loop",
"--no-drop-late-frames",
"--disable-screensaver"};
if(m_strVlcInstallDir.Length > 0)
strInitOptions[0] = m_strVlcInstallDir + @"\vlc";
// init libvlc
Error errVlcLib = VLC_Init(m_iVlcHandle, strInitOptions.Length, strInitOptions);
if (errVlcLib != Error.Success)
{
VLC_Destroy(m_iVlcHandle);
m_strLastError = "Failed to initialise VLC";
m_iVlcHandle = -1;
return false;
}
}
catch
{
m_strLastError = "Could not find libvlc";
return false;
}
// check output window
if(m_wndOutput != null)
{
SetVariable("drawable",m_wndOutput.Handle.ToInt32());
wndOutput_Resize(null,null);
}
// OK
return true;
}
{taken from http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=28553]
this code is not working with vlc1.0.5.. is there any way to run it with that version??
The code is not working on my system. the public Initialize() method is returning false ???
What should I do??
