There is "1/VLCfps" in dropdown menu. Then use "1/x" on the returned value to see the fps. Does it return correct fps for your films? Do you want to have automatic update of the time value in the bottom input field? - Nov 10 2017

You just need to edit the looper_intf.lua sctipt in a text editor. Find the following line:

Then simply remove seconds there:

Thank you for your feedback. So the alignment does not work for you. The "top-right" position should be selected as the default option when you activate the extension. Does it really not work if you select some other position and then press "START" button? Is there anything in the logs (messages) in VLC for this action? Does the ">> PUT^IN" work if you select anything in drop-down list to put it in the input text field?

Perhaps there is a solution to make the TIME extension work in new versions of VLC: interface script (an endless loop with a short sleep to periodically check the settings and to update the time values on the screen) + extension script (dialog box with a control panel for interaction with a user to change time settings and to save settings in some unused VLC variable or in a text file). - Mar 27 2016

d:add_button(">> &Forward", function() click_Jump(1) end, 4,3,1,1)Here is how it looks in my computer: https://cdn.pbrd.co/images/NYpDsUO.png

I would like to make a different layout for OS X and to keep the compact one for Windows and Linux. I would like to ask you whether you could help me to find out the best way how to distinguish OS X from Linux in VLC Lua. It can be useful for other cases/extensions, too. Perhaps there is an environment variable that is available in all OS X systems and not available in Linux, or they have a different value. According to this link: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/set-environment-variable-unix/unix-env-printenv-set-command-to-display-environment-variables/ the OSTYPE could be the one I am looking for. Please check its value in OS X:Quote:-- some environment variables like "OS" and "windir" on Windows (OS=Windows_NT; windir=C:\WINDOWS). "OSTYPE" on OS X and Linux?
-- word "Application" in userdatadir on OS X, not on Linux?
d:add_html(tostring(os.getenv("OSTYPE")) .."<br />".. vlc.config.userdatadir(), 1,5,3,1)
Do the ampersands "&" in the buttons work as hotkeys (Alt+G, Alt+S, ...)? Probably not as they are not invisible there. I can remove them from OS X layout.
Which of the buttons is the "submit" button? While I am editing a string in a text_input field or selecting an item in the drop-down list on Windows, then the first button in the code "Time format" is automatically focused and ready for action by pressing the Enter key on keyboard. - Sep 21 2015

Lua cannot handle UTF-8 strings properly and so it cannot create/write files with paths containing other than Basic Latin characters (Non-ASCII). Try to customize the destination path:

The extension does not work in VLC-2.1+. Please could you try VLC-2.0.9 whether the extension works there? I am on Windows and I do not have enough feedback from OS X users.

A workaround with a Refresh button, that should be pressed periodically during playback (to press and hold the Enter key or a software key sender), is possible. If there are users interested in such a workaround, the principle is shown in "Animated ASCII Art" and "Subtitler (lite) mod" extensions. Could you try them with latest VLC in your Mac OS X? - Nov 19 2014

The script should not crash. It just should not find any subtitles in the file. I can pass all necessary information to VLC developers to fix this crashing issue and I can update the script.
Is there any method to send "Enter" keystrokes automatically and periodically into the "Subtitler (lite) mod" dialog box on Mac OSX? Any script or application?
Thank you for your report and solution. - Sep 26 2014

Well, the script works well for me on my system Windows XP, VLC 32-bit. The "\r\n" EOLs are automatically converted to "\n"s by the file:read() function.

VLC Extensions by mederi 64 comments

There is not any better solution for VLC-2.1+. The "add_callback()" has been removed from Lua extensions.
You just need to use some "keypresser" or "keysender", an external application that is able to send "Enter" keystrokes to "Subtitler (lite) mod" window in certain time interval (about 100 ms) automatically. I have written and included a simple VBScript for Windows users. Linux users could find some application on the Internet and share their recommendation right here. - Jul 07 2014

Is the "Subtitler (lite) mod.lua" file in the right place: "/Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/share/lua/extensions/" or "/Users/%your_name%/Library/Application Support/org.videolan.vlc/lua/extensions/"? Does the extension appear in VLC > Extensions > Subtitler (lite) mod? If you activate the extension, does the dialog box appear on the screen? I need a feedback from OS X users as I am on Windows.

Then the extension works as described in the screenshot: play a media first, activate the extension, press and hold Enter key or use an application that sends the presses of the Enter key automatically in the dialog box. The activated extension should automatically load SRT subtitle file with the same name and place as a playing media file when activating the extension or you can specify the path to SRT file directly in the script (edit the Lua script in a text editor). The path should not contain any special characters. It can contain only ASCII characters (Basic Latin range in Unicode charset), but this is probably only Windows related problem. - May 27 2014
