Re: VLC HEVC 12 bit performance issues on with AMD Ryzen CPUs (2-3FPS playback)

I tried some more testing with a fresh install of the non-nightly build. The main issue for me is that on Intel, the CPU usage is low, but on Ryzen 5000, the CPU usage is extremely high. Basically on everything but Ryzen 5000, that format plays smoothly and with very low CPU usage. In testing the di...

Re: VLC HEVC 12 bit performance issues on with AMD Ryzen CPUs (2-3FPS playback)

Just noticed something else the 4.0 branch plays it mostly smoothly with occasional stutters. The latest nightly of of 3.0.12.1 also plays it much smoother but with occasional stutters. Previously it had more issues though I did a simple upgrade while keeping settings. A fresh install of the nightly...

Re: VLC HEVC 12 bit performance issues on with AMD Ryzen CPUs (2-3FPS playback)

I used DGsplit to create a smaller chunk of the video. Hopefully it is okay in that it keeps the same length and other metadata from the file, while extracting a smaller portion of the video, thus the actual end of the video content will not match with the end of the timeline. Beyond that, the perfo...

Re: Guide: If you have issues with new VLC on high end device

Edit: after trying clean installs of the nightly builds and not reusing the preferences from the previous build, the latest nightly of the 3.0 and 4.0 branch are playing back the content much more smoothly when it comes to the following codec, on a system using a Ryzen 7 5800X CPU. https://i.imgur.c...

VLC HEVC 12 bit performance issues on with AMD Ryzen CPUs (2-3FPS playback)

Hi, After upgrading to a Ryzen 7 5800X, I noticed that for higher bit depth HEVC content, the performance is really bad with framerates in the 2-3 FPS (lots of frame skipping) range while audio plays normally. I am still using my old GTX 970 as the last few GPU generations were ruined by miners and ...

Fire TV version of VLC player but on the raspberry pi

One option I would like to see, is an option to get a version of VLC similar to the version for Fire TV, to work on raspbian. The main reason is that it has a TV friendly UI, as well as the full compatibility with SMB shares within a single UI.

Re: Smarter subtitles, ability to disabble subtitles if audio is in the same language.

Sorry for not being more clear. The basic idea was to have a preferred audio and subtitle language, but have some type of if-this-then-that kind of function where for example for people who play media of multiple languages they may want English subtitles when the audio is in a foreign language, but ...

Smarter subtitles, ability to disabble subtitles if audio is in the same language.

It would be interesting if VLC could have a feature where it could do a basic check where if enabled it will look at the label of the the audio track and if its language matches the subtitles, it will disable the subtitles. For example, imagine if you open a video that has the audio in a foreign lan...

Re: VLC 3.0.1 H.265 Video freeze, audio keeps playing

Has anyone found a solution to this issue, still happens with 3.0.4 where h.265 video will freeze every few minutes while audio continues to play. This issue requires you to use the seek bar to go back a few seconds to get the video playing again for another few minutes.

Custom skip button (with option to place it in the main UI

It would be awesome if VLC could have an extra button to skip forward a custom amount of time, for example, I would like a button that will simply skip forward 1:25

This makes watching anime much easier as as soon as the theme starts, I can skip it with a single button press.

for me the hardware acceleration causes the audio to lose sync with the video, other than that it works smoothly with most formats.
