What type of subtitles?
What version did you use before 2.0.2?
What video output? (Preferences -> video -> output)
Can you share the screenshots?

As for your question, there is no need for declaring the piracy...

Known issue.ticket 6983
At the moment, if you use avformat demuxer, you can see the correct time.

VLC uses freetype renderer module when playing SubRip(srt), and uses libass module when playing SSA/ASS. Both module use fontconfig library. To be exact, from 2.0.2, freetype renderer module doesn't use fontconfig. This issue happens because fontconfig library installaiton on VLC for Mac. fontconfig...

If you get source from git, you have to do "bootstrap".

Also have a look UnixCompile

Add "--build=x86_64-apple-darwin10 --host=x86_64-apple-darwin10" to the configure line.

That worked for me, probably. But I'm not sure because I don't have this issue recently.
IIRC, this issue happened about the end of last month on my own custom builds (always updating to the latest git repository).

The font panel appears as supposed, but no matter what font I pick from the font panel, nothing changes, not even where it says the choosen font. I tried manually changing the vlcrc file, without success... I didn't read your first post well... Also on 10.7, a similar issue, I could not change font...

Does your issue happen only on OS X 10.8?
What type of subtitles? SubRip(srt)? SSA/ASS?
Can you provide the logs?

I don't know if there are similar effects in VLC 1.1.9.

I recommend Mingw-w64 toolchain.

To be precise, current version of VLC (2.0.*, 2.1.0) still try to generate font cache when using ASS/SAA subtitles.
But when using other text subtitles (e.g. SubRIp srt), no more font cache generation as JB said.

Nightly Build of VLC (e.g. http://nightlies.videolan.org/build/win ... 0620-0202/) might help.

Anyway, if you have some problem, please provide the log. (Tools -> Messages verbosity 2)

IIRC, VLC 2.0.1 has this issue.
If you use Nightly Build of VLC, you can play.

(vlc-2.0.2-*.zip http://nightlies.videolan.org/build/macosx-intel/vlc-2.0.2-x86_64-20120624-0316.zip) may help you. If nightly builds doesn't help: Can you paste the log messages when you play the file? Can you share the ass subtitles file? (original and modified) Can you play the subtitles properl...

I tried several media players to play the file (2012052310332001.ts), but no media player can play it. MediaInfo cannot recognize file information, only file size. According to the operation manual of your TV(LC22LE510E_OM_GB.pdf): • Recorded programmes are saved into the connected USB disk in .TS f...

Preferences -> All -> Input/Codec -> Video -> FFmpeg
Threads: 0 (0 means auto)
You can change the setting from 0 to 1.

Anyway, please provide the file information.

Did you play the video with no external subtitles file?
Can other players (e.g. MPlayerX or so) show the subtitles properly?

I cannot understand what is the problem. VLC doesn't show the subtitles at all? Or VLC doesn't show the subtitles as you expected? Also we want the following information: - screenshots (If VLC doesn't show the subtitles properly) - file information (especially what type of subtitles) - log (Window -...

Can you provide the video file information with MediaInfo(http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net)?
And uploading the short sample would be helpful.

Known issue, but I agree it's really annoying.

I also met the lagging issue when playing directly from NAS, but through UPnP, playback is really smooth.
If your NAS has UPnP server, consider using it.

Known issue (limitation) on all platforms.
You cannot play MPEG-TS and external subtitles file together.

The font cache rebuilding issue was fixed on 1.1.10. But I don't know what version invited other issues. So, I cannot recommend any version. If you use (vlc-2.0.2), the effects and filters setting will be applied to the next video. I cannot confirm the stretching issue because I don't have such a vi...

1. Launch VLC. 2. Check Menu -> View -> Advanced Control. If you Advanced Control is on, recording button (red circle) should exist. 3. Select Media -> Open Network Stream and enter URL that you want to play. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXX) 4. Play and push recording button. Recorded file (vlc-...
