MX 19.4 xfce - VLC alternative with V4L2 and ALSA support wanted
by Snugbug from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5P33Q)
In order to use a USB video grabber, I used to have a VLC launcher like this:
Code:/usr/bin/vlc --fullscreen --no-autoscale --aspect-ratio=16:9 --zoom 1.62 --deinterlace=-1 --deinterlace-mode=yadif2x v4l2:///dev/video2:v4l2-standard=PAL_B :input-slave=alsa://hw:3,0 :v4l2-vbidev= :v4l2-chroma= :v4l2-input=0 :v4l2-audio-input=-1 :v4l2-width=1920 :v4l2-height=1080 :v4l2-aspect-ratio=16:9 :v4l2-radio-dev=/dev/radio0 :v4l2-tuner-frequency=-1 :v4l2-tuner-audio-mode=3 :no-v4l2-controls-reset :v4l2-brightness=125 :v4l2-brightness-auto=-1 :v4l2-contrast=-1 :v4l2-saturation=-1 :v4l2-hue=-1 :v4l2-hue-auto=-1 :v4l2-white-balance-temperature=-1 :v4l2-auto-white-balance=-1 :v4l2-red-balance=-1 :v4l2-blue-balance=-1 :v4l2-gamma=100 :v4l2-autogain=-1 :v4l2-gain=-1 :v4l2-sharpness=5 :v4l2-chroma-gain=-1 :v4l2-chroma-gain-auto=-1 :v4l2-power-line-frequency=-1 :v4l2-backlight-compensation=-1 :v4l2-band-stop-filter=-1 :no-v4l2-hflip :no-v4l2-vflip :v4l2-rotate=-1 :v4l2-color-killer=-1 :v4l2-color-effect=-1 :v4l2-audio-volume=-1 :v4l2-audio-balance=-1 :no-v4l2-audio-mute :v4l2-audio-bass=-1 :v4l2-audio-treble=-1 :no-v4l2-audio-loudness :v4l2-set-ctrls= :live-caching=300Because of the latest update of VLC to 3.0.16, there's no sound anymore.
This is caused by a bug introduced with 3.0.13 of VLC and because of tons of dependency issues I would run into, it seems impossible to roll back to VLC 3.0.12 where this bug is not present yet.
Now, I'm looking for an alternative to VLC with V4L2 support to be able to select a /dev/video device and where I can also select an alsa://hw device.
This issue btw. is not only related to MX. It is also happening on other distros, like Mint for example.
What other player can I use and what would the syntax be like to make it work in a way similar to VLC, but with video AND sound, please?
