La gestione mediante le funzioni esterne del API di VLC

La libreria LibVLC mette a disposizione funzioni e risorse per eseguire file audio.

I file audio eseguibili sono i seguenti:

• MP3;
• OGG;
• WAV;
• WMA.

Per creare un'applicazione con la presente risorsa, si dovrà utilizzare l'attuale libreria libvlc.so.5.3.2.

Mostriamo di seguito un breve codice esemplificativo capace di eseguire un file audio.

Private inst As Pointer
Private mp As Pointer


Library "libvlc:5.3.2"

' libvlc_instance_t * libvlc_new (int argc, const char *const *argv)
' Create And initialize a libvlc instance.
Private Extern libvlc_new(argc As Integer, argv As String) As Pointer

' libvlc_media_t * libvlc_media_new_path (libvlc_instance_t *p_instance, const char *path)
' Create a media for a certain file path.
Private Extern libvlc_media_new_path(p_instance As Pointer, path As String) As Pointer

' libvlc_media_player_t * libvlc_media_player_new_from_media (libvlc_media_t *p_md)
' Create a Media Player object from a Media.
Private Extern libvlc_media_player_new_from_media(p_md As Pointer) As Pointer

' int libvlc_media_player_play (libvlc_media_player_t * p_mi)
' Play the audio file.
Private Extern libvlc_media_player_play(p_mi As Pointer) As Integer

' void libvlc_media_player_stop (libvlc_media_player_t * p_mi)
' Stop the audio file
Private Extern libvlc_media_player_stop(p_mi As Pointer)

' void libvlc_media_player_release (libvlc_media_player_t * p_mi)
' Release a media_player after use Decrement the reference count of a media player object.
Private Extern libvlc_media_player_release(p_mi As Pointer)

' libvlc_release (libvlc_instance_t * p_instance)
' Decrement the reference count of a libvlc instance, and destroy it if it reaches zero.
Private Extern libvlc_release(p_instance As Pointer)

 ' Avvia l'esecuzione del file audio da parte del media player:
   libvlc_media_player_play(mp)

End

' Arresta l'esecuzione del file audio:

' Rilascia e chiude il media player:

' Chiude la libreria VLC:
