Hi all, I was wondering if it was possible to use a 'dynamic' background image, for example an image on which one could read the hour ?

When you define the mosaic, is the background image reloaded sometimes or just loaded once when starting ?

Several solutions are available : 1/ You can use several images with the switcher module (but i don't think those can be changed once the switcher module is launched) 2/ You can use another video stream as the background (instead of a fixed image). This image can be generated with VLC and you can use the marq, logo or time video filters that can be updated real time.

I've set up the mosaic example and I run the example with:

./vlc -- color -- extraintf telnet -- vlm-conf ../custom_vlc/mosaic.vlc.conf

Some times the mosaic stay inside of the "window" wxWindow, and other times the mosaic stay outside of the "window" wxWindow. Somebody knows as to assert that the mosaic always stays inside of the "window" wxWindows?


Would it be possible to compile a win32 binary with the older ffmpeg source so that mosaic can function under Windows?

I would really like to get this working and tried compiling under Mandriva LE 2005 but ran into too many troubles.
