VLC version 3.0.18-0+rpt1+deb11u1 - mmal-vout issue

[nightside1]

Hi,
I've a rasperry Pi4 with latest bullseye OS.
I've updated VLC from version 3.0.17-0 to the new one, but I've issue with --mmal-vout-window position.
There is a way to install the previous release? If yes, can someone help me?
Thanks

OK - that is odd - that code won't have changed the slightest between those two releases. What exactly does "I've issue with" entail? Can you post the output of whatever command line you are using with -vv added please? (Please cut it once it reaches actual playback - 20 billion lines of "see my picture", "I've got another picture" add no value! Setup is what I'm after!)

Hi jc-kynesim,
with the previous version, I was able to split my TV screen into 9 or 6 different RTSP sources.
With this version mmal-vout-window is working only for a few sources, the other ones don't start.
In addition, I'm not able to play RTSP stream in full screen if dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d is commented in config.txt
If vc4-kms-v3d is enabled, mmal-vout-windows doesn't work (this issue was present also in version 3.0.17)

Here below is the command that I've used without any issue with until version 3.0.17

For Full-screen (1 source):
vlc -vv --loop --no-video-title 'rtsp://x.x.x.x:xxxx/videoMain'
