Hi
Thanks, but Linux here. And this link doesn't say anything about wrong metadata.

3.0.18 (ubuntu snap) I wanted to fill a bug but I could not log into the gitlab When I convert (from wav) to flac, the generated files do not have their own play length embedded (I don't know if it's an attended metadata). When playing these flac files from vlc no time is displayed in the list. When...

So much ?
I can't upgrade (ubuntu 14). It worked before. I gave -vvv output (I gave the script)
Thank you Santa

Hi Please help me: I had a converting script working (picked and tweaked from wiki ), but today it crashes when trying to compress too huge flacs for my phone (I see 96000 in the log, I'm not sure how I did these braindead files): #!/bin/bash acodec="vorb" arate="320" ext="o...

Ooops : I found back a topic of myself about this : HERE

in the end all this does the job (unfortunately this is for Windows - but maybe this also works for recent linuxes): "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" -I dummy "in_img_1361.mov(or mp4)" --transform-type=90 --sout="#transcode{vcodec=mp4v(ou h264),vfilter=transform}:std{...

Hi Rémi I can't understand why JB told VLC can't do it then. I didn't ask about anything lossless. I gave a try with my own phone and whatever the autorotate setting was set, only videos caught in landscape orientation relative to the ground will display bottom down in VLC with default settings and ...

It was confirmed by JBK that VLC can't save rotated. Please what is your best/prefered VLC alternative to reach this, if ever possible in linux.

Thank you

Thank you to let us know JB, It was years since I try various setting.
Please which is you you favorite software to deal with this limitation, if ever there is one able to ?

I won't drop VLC although, it's such a great piece of soft.

Thanks again

The ~best~ output I can get is a square W=H frame size, genuine video W/H ratio not being transposed to H/W Setting W>H I get repeated stack of the same ugly/funny nuns frames. Setting W<H I get the same nuns on the right with a left glitchy/blinking/psychedelic column. I'm not sure this was already...

When playing the mov on a win32 latest VLC 2.2.4, the video is not rotated (my ubuntu 14.04 is stuck to VLC2.1.6). I think when people catch a video (or photo) with a phone and they have autorotation disabled, depending on the way they physically hold the phone rotated or not is the reason we get or...

Hi I have similar job to do but the original file.MOV is rotated 90°CCW and was from a friend's phone 1280*720px. I can read it OK when using transformation filter 90°CW, but when following instructions in the link above to re-rec the file, in preferences I can only set destination folder but not ou...

...cvlc -I dummy... ...in Firefox with default program... Any ideas? I am really new to VLC. Thanks for you time. As Denis showed us above -I dummy is useless with c vlc. I don't understand what means "in FF with default program..", no plugin or you mean something else ? Also, just being ...

I did the job track at once with the GUI. This is not a very powerful laptop. Then trying to run same kind of script to convert the flac's to ogg's, I met the same weird behaviour : some track were not converted. I moved the yet-done flac's to another folder and re-ran the script, which again droppe...

Nice !
Not such a definitive suggestion for this question Rémi?

Hi man This surely isn't an answer, more a question for me : isn't vlc -I dummy the same as cvlc ? Help didn't help: vlc --longhelp --advanced |grep -A10 "intf" # <--how did I find that !!! ??? VLC media player 2.1.6 Rincewind (revision 2.1.6-0-gea01d28) -- -I, --intf <Chaîne> Module d'int...

Hi I'm failing to have this job done in ubuntu 14.04 (vlc 2.1.6) I'm afraid this is not a vlc bug (sorry), only my poor scripting skills. I added a sleep 10 in the loop, but it randomly forgets tracks, never the same ones. Any help please ? Here is the script, which is tweaked from the wiki to have ...

Hi guys I'm trying to adapt the wiki tutorial here for my need (batch convert flac to ogg) but I get either white space stripped out file names ... or new line in file names where white space were in input file name. I tried basename with -a too, and/or -z (this last removes spaces) The goal is to g...

Ok, I discovered one can DL the yt videos as mp4 (right click). Then I converted it to TS and pasted in my freebox player.

Many thanks VLC team

Hi Denis I installed VLC 2.2.4 in wine. I had same impossible read. Then I found an updated youtube.luac in this site : https://gist.github.com/captn3m0/4231640 I copied the content in a youtube.luac file both in ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/VideoLAN/VLC/lua/playlist and /usr/lib/vlc/lua/play...

Hi I read many posts here where some say some video play in VLC an others won't play. Please can you read this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FhKJgqxNDD8 I'd like to send it to my TV with good sound. I run VLC2.1.6 ubuntu14.04.5 and I get this error () translated) even after I tried adding :net...

Thank you very much man, even v2.0.3 from ubuntu14.04 repos did the job. No need to compile :) Newbies like me, be aware that man multicat is much smaller than multicat -h Before I discovered this I ran the kfm31 command without -f & -k (fortunately the chunk I needed started at 00:00:00 which i...

Hi I recorded from my set top box freebox a file which appears to be a TS file. The recording is far too long and I'd like to cut out the end. I found I can add :stop-time=3755 in the advanced options of the Open/Convert dialog. The original file works as is, so I'd rather not convert it to another ...
