RinceWind playback problems

[9263248]

having lots of problems with version 2.1.2 , playback is very choppy and blotchy with most of my files.
So here is specs on one that gave me lots of problems and is really unviewable.

Code: Select all

Codec: WVC1 Resolution: 1280x720 Frame rate: 30.000030 Decoded Format: Planar 4:2:0 YUV

A few points: WMP 11 and the latest MPC do not have a problem with the file.
and ...
VLC 1.7 does not have a problem with playing the video, yet 2.1.2 does!?
addendum: 2.0.8 also no problem
So the issues do not seem related to the OS or to the files themselves but to VLC 2.1.2
Here is the MediaInfo data dump:

Code: Select all

Format : VC-1 Format profile : Advanced@L2 Codec ID : WVC1 Codec ID/Hint : Microsoft Description of the codec : Windows Media Video 9 Advanced Profile Duration : 1h 7mn Bit rate mode : Constant Bit rate : 5 744 Kbps Width : 1 280 pixels Height : 720 pixels Display aspect ratio : 16:9 Frame rate : 30.000 fps Chroma subsampling : 4:2:0 Bit depth : 8 bits Scan type : Progressive Compression mode : Lossy Bits/(Pixel*Frame) : 0.208 Stream size : 2.72 GiB (95%)

To help you, we need messages, to completely understand what your problems is.
To fix this, please be sure before you start the playback to:

1. Open: Tools -> Messages.
2. Set Verbosity to 2
3. Start playback to reproduce your issue
4. Save text in a file or copy into clipboard
5. Then paste the full resulting log here between [​code]and[​/code] (or use Pastebin.com if it's too long)

Also don't forget to name your Operating System and provide the VLC media player version.

OS is Windows 7 and 8.1 , here is log from 15 seconds of playing. Keep in mind problem not there with twoflower version of VLC.

Nothing ??? Should I put this in the bug system?

[pzeudo]

I get really rotten playback with 2.1.2 aswell, I just reinstalled windows 7 and figured I'd get a newer VLC afterwards, but I get framerate at around 10-15 when playing recorded RAW fraps videoes, while with version 2.04 from my system backup, it runs flawless.

I never got a response to my last post. I simply went back to 2.04 and stayed there. Play-a-folder doesn't work but i can drop the group of files into the playlist and they will play just fine, unlike the RinceWind release. To me 2.1.2 is just junk and i turned off the "check for update" option.
