Okay, I was able to build the QtVLC player in QtCreator and can reproduce the sizing issue; so off to file the bug report... This was the QtVLC.pro file I ended up with: TEMPLATE = app TARGET = qtvlc DEPENDPATH += . INCLUDEPATH += /Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/include LIBS += -L/Applications/...

Curious, where did you place the code to set VLC_PLUGIN_PATH? In player.cpp:Mwindow? Having similar problem with QtPlayer.

Actually, the compilation steps appear to be okay, but the app start fails: 15:45:54: Starting /Users/timothy/VLCSource/vlc-3.0/doc/libvlc/build-QtVLC-Desktop_Qt_5_15_0_clang_64bit-Debug/qtvlc.app/Contents/MacOS/qtvlc ... dyld: Symbol not found: _gll_noop Referenced from: /System/Library/Frameworks/...

Okay, got the code as suggested above and trying to build through QtCreator 4.13.2, with Qt5.13.2, on macOS 10.15.7 (Catalina). The only thing I altered was QtVLC.pro to indicate paths on my system: TEMPLATE = app TARGET = qtvlc DEPENDPATH += . INCLUDEPATH += . \ ../../../include # /Users/timothy/VL...

Ok, will do, once I have some success at building this... Which forum best for discussing compilation issues? Any pre-built versions of this around?

Sorry, I don't know what you mean by "OP" ???

Here are a couple of videos to show this behaviour. https://drive.google.com/file/d/11LnwhfEQRP_vfOS47NxExhDQe7BYOgFB/view?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/1pIZQkLZIwaNgU1PyfAhBeuxj-IZC6RgN/view?usp=sharing The first is smaller than the video window when loaded and doesn't scale up until ...

I've been using VLC for a number of years, but only recently started making use of the git repositories and working with the source code itself. With git, do I need to work with the most recent code, or can I clone a particular version, such as 3.0.11.1? I know where to download the source code for ...

I've now added this as separate topic: "Video doesn't scale until manual resize (macOS)".

I'm using the VLC bindings for Python with PyQt5 on macOS, and I'm seeing an issue where a video does not scale up or down to fit the QWidget until it is manually resized; sometimes it does, but mostly it doesn't. All of the early VLC 3.0 versions work fine until I get to 3.0.7. The changelog sugges...

I meant to say macOS Mojave and Catalina; not Sierra. My display uses: Intel HD Graphics 4000: Chipset Model: Intel HD Graphics 4000 Type: GPU Bus: Built-In VRAM (Dynamic, Max): 1536 MB Vendor: Intel Device ID: 0x0166 Revision ID: 0x0009 Metal: Supported, feature set macOS GPUFamily1 v4

Did you ever find a fix for this? I am facing a similar problem with VLC 3.0.11.1 on macOS Mojave and Sierra, which doesn't occur with VLC 2 or the early releases of 3.0. Sometimes videos do resize properly, but mostly they either don't scale up or don't scale down to fit their display window when i...

One of the most frustrating things for me as a developer is creating code that works perfectly for me, but fails on some user's machine. In general, has anyone had difficulty with playing videos in VLC on a Mac using the python bindings? More specifically, I have a PyQt5 application for macOS (https...

Thank you sooooo much!

Some documentation somewhere said that more than one filter could be used by separating them with a comma, so I tried "--video-filter=croppadd,transform", which didn't work. An inspired guess led me to try using a colon instead of a comma, which worked! Making the necessary changes to my p...

What is the correct way to use multiple video filters in the command line? I'm trying to crop and tranform in one go with the following commands: vlc.exe some_movie_file --video-filter=croppadd --croppadd-croptop=20 --croppadd-cropright=20 --croppadd-cropbottom=20 --croppadd-cropleft=20 --video-filt...

Is this issue listed somewhere? Is it likely to be fixed at some point or is it out of the scope of VLC development? I had a similar issue with VLC playback where some (not all) videos seemed to stop just short of the end (I use 'play-and-pause' to pause on the last frame), but with 2.2.4 this probl...

Oh boy... this is one I really need to solve... If anyone even has an inkling of a solution, I'd love to hear it. Thanks.

VLC transcoding via the commandline is shortening my videos. I've been testing a number of different videos of different formats and durations on both Windows and MacOS and they all are being shortened by around 100ms (+-30ms). In many cases this doesn't make much difference, but in the video used i...

I'm not to worried about the other players, but I was curious about the green result I was seeing in them. My problem was that I couldn't transcode very small videos without including the "zerolatency" option. I've since found that another solution is to use very small framecounts for fram...

Seemed like a good subject line to discuss over coffee! I've added "--sout-x264-tune=zerolatency" to my transcoding chain and while my resultant videos play fine in VLC, in other players I've tried they are mostly just green (or black) with a narrow strip of discernable video along the top...

Another observation, while including zerolatency 'fixes' my problem, the resulting video has a large green/black/missing band when played in other video players apart from VLC...

I'm not sure why, but including "--sout-x264-tune=zerolatency" in my chain seems to fix this problem. The resulting video seems to be a little shorter than the original but that may be another issue ... ?

Is there anything extra I need to do in order to use the ffmpeg encoder module with VLC? I'm trying to use " --sout=#transcode{venc=ffmpeg,vcodec=h264} ..." with 2.2.4 Weatherwax on Windows, but all I get is a warning that FFmpeg is broken. The message received is added below, in spite of ...

Has anyone had trouble transcoding short videos (< 2 seconds) and found a solution? I'm trying to transcode a .m1v video to .mp4 and I end up with a video which won't play. I'm seeing this with other formats also and I'm suspecting that the shortness of the videos is the problem since longer videos ...
