LibVlc: get ID of marquee and logo.
Hi there
As VLC supports multiple overlays at the same time there is a problem how to control their presentation. (The same goes for logo functionality.) For example I would like to have volume marquee text changing (if user changes the volume), but keep the other informative text untouched.
So the enhancement request is that you would get an ID when you would enable marquee (and logo). In that way you would be able to control everything on it's own.
One way of doing this is as a pump: LibVLC creates a new structure with data and on Enable command it gets pushed into the commands that will be executed at the next overlay draw. So overlay would keep the last state and data. In that way LibVLC wouldn't contain any data and probably the least changes would be needed.
Now I would do it by my self, but I don't know if it will be accepted by the VLC team and doing it on my local version is useless.
Please contact me how it is decided.
