Digy: /* Wrong vlcInstallDirectory */

== Ticket #156 (closed defect: fixed) Is restarting VLC the fix ==

Is this fixed or is restarting VLC the fix? I am sending HD streams and after about 1 hour to 2 hours the CPU begins to spike at specific intervals corrupting the multicast stream that I am sending. I have to stop and restart VLC 0.8.5 to recover.

"VLC on VTHR leaks memory (see videolan@vthr:prod/vlc.sh) while doing intensive TS/UDP multicast streaming input/output.

A restart is needed after some time. "

== ".Net Interface to VLC" marshals strings falsely ==

".Net Interface to VLC" marshals strings falsely. For ex,playlist_AddExt, can not add a file to playlist if the path/filename contains a non-english char such as ğ,ü,ş,i,ö,ç etc.
More correct approach can be like below:

NativeLibVlc.cs
---------------

<pre>
static extern VlcError playlist_AddExt(
IntPtr p_playlist,
[MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.CustomMarshaler,MarshalTypeRef=typeof(UTF8Marshaler))] String mrl,
[MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.CustomMarshaler,MarshalTypeRef=typeof(UTF8Marshaler))] String mrlDuplicate,
Mode mode,
Int32 pos,
Int64 mtime_t,
[MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.CustomMarshaler, MarshalTypeRef = typeof(UTF8Marshaler))] string[] Options,
int OptionsCount
);
</pre>

class UTF8Marshaler : ICustomMarshaler
{

static UTF8Marshaler _MyCustomMarshaler = null;

public static ICustomMarshaler GetInstance(string Cookie)
{
if (_MyCustomMarshaler == null)
{
_MyCustomMarshaler = new UTF8Marshaler();
}
return _MyCustomMarshaler;
}

public void CleanUpManagedData(object ManagedObj)
{
}

public void CleanUpNativeData(IntPtr pNativeData)
{
}

public int GetNativeDataSize()
{
return -1;
}

public IntPtr MarshalManagedToNative(object ManagedObj)
{
if (ManagedObj is string)
{
unsafe
{
byte[] buf = System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding("UTF-8").GetBytes((string)ManagedObj);
fixed (void* ptr = &buf[0])
{
return new IntPtr(ptr);
}
}
}
if (ManagedObj is string[]){
unsafe
{
string[] array = (string[])ManagedObj;
IntPtr[] buf = new IntPtr[array.Length];
for (int i = 0; i < buf.Length; i++)
{
byte[] b = System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding("UTF-8").GetBytes(array[i]);
fixed(void *p=&b[0]){
buf[i] = (IntPtr)p;
}
}
fixed (void* ptr = &buf[0])
{
return new IntPtr(ptr);
}
}
}
throw new Exception("UTF8Marshaler can only be used for \"string\" or \"string[]\". ");
}

public object MarshalNativeToManaged(IntPtr pNativeData)
{
return null;
}

}

== Wrong vlcInstallDirectory ==

If a .Net program using VLanControl is started from a network share like "\\server\share\program.exe", "vlcInstallDirectory" is
calculated falsely.

A solution can be like below:

<pre>
static NativeLibVlc()
{

/* - */ //NativeLibVlc.vlcInstallDirectory = Path.GetDirectoryName(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().CodeBase).Substring(6);
/* + */ NativeLibVlc.vlcInstallDirectory = Application.StartupPath;
}
</pre>

Is this fixed or is restarting VLC the fix? I am sending HD streams and after about 1 hour to 2 hours the CPU begins to spike at specific intervals corrupting the multicast stream that I am sending. I have to stop and restart VLC 0.8.5 to recover.
