VLC won't play Fraps videos anymore.

[micolithe]

I upgraded to v1.1.3 after using v1.0.2 for like forever and now all of a sudden fraps videos played in VLC only have audio and no video, and the audio has crackling every few seconds.

Before you say it's the video file, keep in mind the file reads just fine in every other program. Sony Vegas, Windows Media Player, etc.

I DID wipe my settings during the reinstall (winamp keeps stealing the filetype associations for video files and it drives me nuts), so I'm thinking that because this worked a mere hour ago, that I might just be missing a setting somewhere.

Anyone have any ideas?

I'm using Windows 7 64 bit and the videos are created by Fraps 3.2.1

http://samples.mplayerhq.hu/V-codecs/FP ... -48-00.avi at least that works. So do you have some sample video that doesn't work?

[micolithe]

I do but they're 2.9 gigs each because fraps is an uncompressed AVI format.

Use Virtualdub and cut out smaller sample.

Fine, here's a 100 megabyte 4 second video file. In my copy of VLC this has no video, and the audio crackles three times over the course of four seconds.

Reinstalling Fraps did not fix the problem by the way.

VLC doesn't use FRAPS's DirectShow codec so reinstalling FRAPS doesn't have an effect to VLC.

I can replicate the issue. Thanks. Trac ticket opened.
