Hi All,

My requirement is to play a video file and pause it after 2 secs. Iam new to C program and i decided to code in eclipse as i am familiar with java. i have done all the prerequisites and have no errors in my project. But when i try to run noting happens. No video open.

I am using cygwin compiler and have added the header files nad vlc library in the properties.

Need your help on the below code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <libvlc.h>
#include <vlc.h>
#include <windows.h>

int main()
{
libvlc_instance_t * my_inst;
libvlc_media_player_t *mp;
libvlc_media_t *m;

/* Load the VLC engine */
my_inst = libvlc_new (0, NULL);

/* Create a new item */
m = libvlc_media_new_path (my_inst, "C:\\Movies\\Cap.mp4");

/* Create a media player playing environment */
mp = libvlc_media_player_new_from_media (m);

/* play the media_player */
libvlc_media_player_play (mp);

Sleep(2); /* Let it play a bit */

/* Stop playing */
libvlc_media_player_stop (mp);

/* Free the media_player */
libvlc_media_release (m);

libvlc_media_player_release (mp);

libvlc_release (my_inst);

return 0;
}
