Starting with VLC media player 0.9.0, format string variables can be used with the following options:
- --marq-marquee
- --snapshot-path (when specifying a full image path, not a directory)
- --image-out-prefix
- file access output dst/url (like in std{access=file,mux=ts,url=THIS})
There are two kinds of format string variables: time variables and meta variables.
Time
Time variables are those defined by the strftime C function. Those include:
- %Y : year
- %M : month
- %d : day
- %H : hour
- %m : minute
- %s : second
For an extensive list have a look at man strftime.
Meta
Meta variables are VLC specific. The complete list is:
- $a : artist
- $b : album
- $c : copyright
- $d : description
- $e : encoded by
- $g : genre
- $l : language
- $n : track num
- $p : now playing
- $r : rating
- $s : subtitles language
- $t : title
- $u : url
- $A : date
- $B : audio bitrate (in kb/s)
- $C : chapter
- $D : duration
- $F : full name with path
- $I : title
- $L : time left
- $N : name
- $O : audio language
- $P : position (in %)
- $R : rate
- $S : audio sample rate (in kHz)
- $T : time
- $U : publisher
- $V : volume
- $_ : new line
- $<any other char> : <any other char> (for example: $$ transforms to $)
