|
Past versions of VLC may refer to a different module as bonjour: with VLC 3.0.0 the old bonjour.c module(section link) was renamed to avahi.c and bonjour.m was created. |
None of these modules have options.

The introduction of this probe contains a note:
Add a bonjour renderer submodule to the bonjour service discovery module, so it can discover chromecast renderers (for now) and others in the future. There is still some work needed to make it detect chromecast capabilities correctly and to not hardcode it to chromecast. (See the TODO comment)
The TODO comment in the same commit:
