I have created a very early BETA for a VLC plugin.
It uses the rc interface (local TCP socket at port 4112) to get info of currently playing filen, current time and total time.
More info data to come but i have to get my socket code to work better first.
The plugin and more info can be found
here
Please give me feedback and list info that may be useful to see on the plugin.

This plugin has some bugs.
The major one is that it causes LCD Smartie freezing after closing VLC

I close VLC without a problem and lcdsmartie not freeze.
But when I "pause" a movie the information in the lcd appears with status "not playing" then "playing" and don't show info for the current movie. Then when you hit "play" again everything it's ok.

I discovered that action with vlc.dll plugin that i had caused freezing of LCD Smartie (i have Smartie 5.5 beta version).
After deleting it that problem disappeared, maybe i did it wrong, it looks like that (part of config.ini file):
Code: Select all
Action12Variable=VLC: $dll(vlc,1,Stat,)
Action12Condition=2
Action12ConditionValue=playing
Action12Action=GotoScreen(3)
After all this plugin still has some bugs that are annoying me, can someone provide source of it

Looks like deleting that action didn't solve problem, yesterday it worked but today Smartie freezes again...
Edit:
Now i know what's the problem. Looks like it's an conflict between vlc.dll plugin and TrueTransparency program from Seven Transformation Pack 4 installed on my Win XP. Sometimes TrueTransparency crashes and closes and then Smartie stops freezing when closing VLC, but other bugs in this plugin still stays.

How can I get this plugin to work?
I have put the "vlc.dll" file in "C:\Program Files\lcd_smartie\plugins" and set the remote interface in vlc on. But nothing on the display when I try "$dll(vlc,1,Filename,)"
Is there more that needs to be changed? Or did I do something wrong?
Thanks
