<div dir="ltr">Hi, I don't know if it's the right place to ask my question but I can't find help anywhere else. I want to make a C program which capture all mouse events, not only those from a window I created myself, is it possible ? if yes, how ? To make it clearer, I am developing an application using the libVLC and I want to capture mouse events on the video display but the libVLC consumes all mouse events so I can't get them. I used a global mouse hook under windows and it works fine, but I don't know how to do under Linux. I tried capturing events directly from /dev/input/event* but I can't get the pointer position that way. If X can't do it , do I have others solutions? Thanks in advance, regards, </div>
