This module lets you send control messages to VLC using the [http://www.opensourcecontrol.org/ Open Sound Control] protocol.
* Patch against VLC 0.9.9a: http://www.aelius.com/njh/tmp/vlc-0.9.9a+osc.patch
 
* Patch against VLC 0.9.8a: http://www.aelius.com/njh/tmp/vlc-0.9.8a+osc.patch
The following commands are currently supported:
* Patch against GIT master: http://www.aelius.com/njh/tmp/vlc-git+liblo.patch
<pre>
&rarr; /deck/play          - Start playback
&rarr; /deck/pause        - Pause playback
&rarr; /deck/stop          - Stop playback
&rarr; /deck/eject        - Eject (stops and clears the playlist)
&rarr; /deck/load (s)      - Load &lt;mrl&gt; (stops and clears the playlist first)
</pre>
 
NOTE: These paths are designed to be compatible with [http://www.aelius.com/njh/madjack/ MadJACK] and are subject to change. They treat VLC as a single track player and playlist functionality isn't currently supported.
