VLM - scene-prefix not working
https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=128956
I am using scene vfilter to generate thumbnails of many live stream inputs with VLM. This was/is working fine with VLC version 1.1.13, but it doesn't work with vlc 2.1.6 and above up to current version 2.2.1.
Scene-prefix is ignored and thumbnails created in /tmp/ are named just "scene.png".
VLM Config channels.conf:
del all
new test broadcast enabled loop
setup test input udp://@239.255.2.100:10001
setup test option scene-format=png
setup test option scene-ratio=5
setup test option scene-width=80
setup test option scene-height=45
setup test option scene-prefix=testchannel
control test play
Startup:
$ cvlc -v -I dummy --extraintf luatelnet --telnet-password asdasd -V dummy -A dummy --video-filter scene --scene-replace --scene-path=/tmp --vlm-conf ./channels.conf
Logged into VLM's telnet interface, "show" command displays:

If i use --scene-prefix=testchannel on the command line, when starting vlc 2.1.6 and above, the filename is correct.
Thank you
