Pauses and resumes playing randomly

Postby Lro » 25 Jul 2024 16:14

Dear all,

it is my first post - I tried to read through the previous topics as probably my question has been asked before. Please apologize if it's a repost, I couldn't find an answer.

My VLC Windows 3.0.21 64 bit on Windows 11 Home stops and resumes playing radomly every few seconds when playing an mp3 file.

Please find here a part of the log-file, that should cover such a situation: https://justpaste.it/ca5qi

Any idea on how to solve this issue?

Thank you in advance!

Lro

Try another audio output module:

Don't forget to save and restart VLC after changes.

And check your computer latency:

Looking at the log, Windows is telling VLC to pause and resume. Probably some other app is preempting audio for notifications or such

I'm experiencing a similar issue. Whenever I pause the audio, it resumes playing on its own after about 30 to 60 minutes. Reinstalling or resetting VLC has not resolved the problem.
