- * The options are detailed in vlc --long-help, for instance
- * "--sout-all". Note that all options are not usable on medias:

- * such as text renderer options cannot be set on a single media. They
- * must be set on the whole libvlc instance instead.
+ * \note The options are listed in 'vlc --long-help' from the command line,
+ * e.g. "-sout-all". Keep in mind that available options and their semantics
+ * vary across LibVLC versions and builds.
+ * \warning Not all options affects libvlc_media_t objects:
+ * Specifically, due to architectural issues most audio and video options,
+ * such as text renderer options, have no effects on an individual media.
+ * These options must be set through libvlc_new() instead.
