...there is an option to do this under Advanced Preferences -> Interface -> Main Interfaces ->... Thanks - these options work really well, with a skin or without. It's only the 'minimise to tray' operation that would complement the feature. It would make it easier for us to use both with mouse and ...

Thank you for the tip. We have tried the utility but without success. We tested Recover MP4 using a working/reference clip plus a copy of it in which to change the angle & metadata. Unfortunately the header transfer from reference to copy doesn't yield any useable result. As far as we can tell t...

Thank you for responding.

It really depends how the tool involved broke it...

This is really the question. Is there anyway to determine what has taken place (even if with another tool)?

We have managed to bork an MP4 video after saving it with new metadata and while the angle transform geometry was applied. The file still 'plays' with VLC reporting that there are H264 video & AAC audio streams present but with nothing of either being displayed in the statistics. Other players e...

Thanks for looking over this.

Hopefully somebody in the future would find it useful too and worthy of the effort.

We use a couple of pieces of software that work this way:- GUI Ping Monitor: https://sourceforge.net/projects/gui-ping-monitor MyPhoneExplorer: https://www.fjsoft.at The first one is open source so may provide some pointers for inclusion with VLC. We would find this capability very helpful, in parti...

This is a two part question:- First, is there a way to run VLC solely from the systray without showing it on the taskbar? We have disabled the "Show VLC on the taskbar" option but this does not appear to have any effect even after closing/restarting. Second, is there a way to minimise VLC ...

Turning Video/Deinterlace from automatic to off fixes the flickering green for me, so far... Switching-off the deinterlacing works for us too but setting to Direct3D9 had no effect (so is left to AUTO). The strange thing is that the issue has only just materialised for us but on only one of our two...

Thanks for answering our question.

It was prompted by problems playing back DVDs but it transpires we were barking up the wrong tree and have this issue instead:-

Thank you again.

We are confused about how to install the libdvdcss library with VLC. Our platform is: Windows 7 Ultimate x64, VLC 3.0.6 Vetinari Please would someone help us understand how to install and use libdvdcss because after reading the following resources, and some trial and error, we are unable to get it t...

Click on the icon to do so.

Maybe an additional option in the preferences would help? Perhaps something like "X minimise to tray" would make it more clear?

Just a thought.

Thanks.

It's not currently done but might be considered for the future. Thanks for the post. We too would like play our songs & videos etc. to our 'plain old' DLNA TV from our Droid tablet. So we now ask: has this feature/capability been considered as such? If so, where should we be looking for a progr...

You're complaining about the red hat on the VLC cone? You know, the red hat like a Playboy centerfold might wear in a holiday photoshoot? Yeah, that's a real oppressive religious symbol.

Amen to that!

Can this mode be settable by default, i.e. to run VLC solely from the the systray; whether it be either in via user preferences or via a command line option? Or alternatively, when run from the taskbar, can the behaviour of the close button/Alt-F4 be modified so that it minimises instead? Thanks for...

The VLC plugin for Mozilla doesn't appear to associate itself with Quicktime .mov files therefore meaning that it won't handle the content. Have tried changing things using facilities such as about:config, about:plugins and file type associations in VLC itself - but to no avail. Is this correct beha...

Not sure if this has been covered before (have looked around), perhaps with a different internet radio station but one of my favourites has just been 'pulled': http://aac.popsicle.groovera.com:80/ This played ok in the past but now greets with a 'media player no longer supported' message. Is there a...
