The VideoLAN Forums

There has been a bug report for this for ages. It is not an easy problem, especially when VLC developers are so few and so not sponsored.

Can you tell me the bug report URL please? I want to track this highly important bug.

THANKS

If I knew how to fix it, I'd have fixed it already.

I'm only asking you in what kind of files/formats have you seen/hear VLC jumps some frames? Can you tell me?
Because I have tested it comparing it with Windows Media Player using small sound files and I don't see the difference.

It is not fixed at all.

No? What needs yet to be fixed? Can you tell me please?

Heyyy after years having this problem... looks fixed in VLC 2.1.0!
Can developers confirm that?

Hey! Regression bug. The last VLC 2.1.0 (nightly build) fails again with that:
http://streams.videolan.org/issues/4828/test.avi

Audio is not well played

Yes, sorry. I have checked it, and it is fixed in VLC 2.1!

This was set to "fixed" some weeks ago. VLC 2.0.2 (last version) breaks this... Can be a regression bug or it not was really successfully fixed? I have reopened the ticket:
http://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/4828

jb, as you know the problem is in the AVI header, because if you save the AVI with VirtualDub using "Direct Stream Copy" (to not recode) in Audio and Video to a new one, the resulting AVI file is perfectly readable by all players (because VirtualDub rewrites the file header and frames and ...

Sorry about the delay. All the videos I have from my videocamera are more than 4Gb and I can't find my firewire cable to capture a short one, so I have cuted the first 60.000.000 bytes (60 mb) of one of my AVI files and saved it to a new file.

So, will this finally fixed in VLC 1.2?

I don't know exactly how many milliseconds it jumps, so it is not exactly 0,5 secs...Sorry about the post topic. But as I said, VLC 1.2 does the same, it also jumps from the begining, this the only defect I always saw to VLC months ago, if you correct this, VLC will be perfect for playing files! As ...

Tested with an mp3 file with the latest VLC version at this moment (VLC 1.2.0-git-20110414-0004 Twoflower), downloaded from

I'm using XP Professional SP3

Sorry... OK, THANKS! I though you said VLC 1.1.2...

Thanks Jean-Baptiste Kempf for your reply, OK, but why this happen to the newer versions of VLC? I thought this is a defect in VLC, as I said Windows Media Player for example, reproduces the audio files exactly from the beginning. Will this be corrected in future versions?

THANKS

I'm using VLC 1.1.9 but as I know this happen to all previous versions as well. When using VLC for playing audio files (music for example), it doesn't play the first 500 millisecond (0,5 second) of each track. Windows Media Player instead, plays the track exactly at the start. This is a problem for ...
