◆ vlc_demux_chained_ControlVa()

int vlc_demux_chained_ControlVa	(	vlc_demux_chained_t *	demux,
		int	query,
		va_list	args
	)

Controls a chained demuxer.

This performs a demux (i.e. DEMUX_...) control request on a chained demux.

Note: In most cases, vlc_demux_chained_Control() should be used instead.

Warning: As per vlc_demux_chained_New(), most demux controls are not, and cannot be, supported; VLC_EGENERIC is returned.

Parameters

demux	the chained demuxer instance to send the request to
query	demux control (see demux_query_e)
args	variable arguments (depending on the query)

◆ vlc_demux_chained_Delete()

void vlc_demux_chained_Delete ( vlc_demux_chained_t * dc )

Destroys a chained demuxer.

Sends an end-of-stream to the chained demuxer, and releases all underlying allocated resources.

◆ vlc_demux_chained_New()

vlc_demux_chained_t * vlc_demux_chained_New	(	vlc_object_t *	parent,
		const char *	name,
		es_out_t *	out
	)

Creates a chained demuxer.

This creates a thread running a demuxer whose input stream is generated directly by the caller. This typically handles some sort of stream within a stream, e.g. MPEG-TS within something else.

Note: There are a number of limitations to this approach. The chained demuxer is run asynchronously in a separate thread. Most demuxer controls are synchronous and therefore unavailable in this case. Also the input stream is a simple FIFO, so the chained demuxer cannot perform seeks. Lastly, most errors cannot be detected.
