Extension was created as a result of my curiosity. I wanted to know how to create a VLC extension/plugin. As the name would suggest, this simple extension does absolutely nothing. The extension has one window (dialog) which contains one label and one button as it is shown in the screenshot below. Pressing on the “Click me“ button will result in closing of the window.
I will probably use gained knowledge of the Lua language to create an actual useful extension in the future.
In order to install the extension in .lua go to the file path C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\lua. Inside the lua folder, create another folder by name “extensions”. Now copy the “useless.lua” file inside it. Once the lua file is copied, the extension will be uploaded and installed.
