If I select from the menu Tools > Effects and filters > Video Effects and click on the Image adjust box VLC immediately terminates if I am watching a movie or it does not start if I make this selection prior to attempting to play a movie. Alternatively, I have attempted to change the gamma value via...

I realise this error has many posts and is mainly caused by permission settings which is not the case here, see following: scott@scottlounge:/media/pool/Entertainment/Kids Movies/Toy Story$ ls -al total 139475356 drwxrwxr-x 2 shagoo shagadmin 4096 Dec 21 07:38 . drwxrwxr-x 4 shagoo shagadmin 4096 De...

I am using a subtitle editor which uses VLC as the video player. When invoking VLC I get the following error messages: [00005612f44efbc0] vlcpulse audio output error: digital pass-through stream connection failure: Not supported [00005612f44efbc0] main audio output error: module not functional [0000...

It does it easily, normally with a dozen or more applications open (though mostly at idle) and multi tabs open in the 2 browsers I always run concurrently, I do have 16GB RAM, maybe that helps. The linux machine has a later CPU and it's the problem one. Due to size of UHD movies I have to package th...

Here are some figures further supporting the usability of both processors.

I have a number of UHD movies which my VLC 3.0 on Ubuntu 17.10 has been playing without problems for many months now. I went to play Jason Bourne, 2016 (retail version) the other day and experienced severe choppiness in playback. I suspected there must be some error in the file as I don't normally h...

Well i'm using 17.10 on 2 machines and it works fine on both. Have you updated your repositories? Or, what exactly does the terminal tell you is wrong?

I find it just unbelievable that between the combined brains-trust of launchpad, VLC and Ubuntu that a deb version of VLC 3.0 is not available, especially now the stable version has been released. The later RC versions of 3.0 which did exist are no longer available... Anyway the work-around to play ...

I installed the latest VLC 3.0 from the Ubuntu snap store yesterday which I assume is the official release version with the switch --devmode, to make VLC usable. I watched one 1080p movie with no major problems but playing a 2160p movie was different story altogether. The movie continuously stuttere...

OK, got to the bottom of this first off it is ver. 3.0 RC3 and secondly it relates only to the snap store version available in Ubuntu Software. The issue being that as of today's date snap programs cannot access directories/folders/files outside of your Home Directory. A bug has been submitted re th...

Actually i have erred in this post. This problem is an extension to the problem of not being able to select a file to play from a network location which causes one to play a file from the OS file manager. What is actually happening is that for each title played a new VLC window is opened which has a...

It eludes me what you find either vague or unclear but I have explained the 2 sentences in excruciating detail below. It may be helpful if I add that this behaviour occurs on 2 PCs both running Ubuntu 17.10 in Xorg display mode. I'm assuming, "Previously, up until mid-December at least,..."...

OK, I accept that but I suspect it may not be being invoked by VLC correctly because there are no network locations visible as you would normally expect. If you call Ubuntu's file manager directly there is a whole section headed NETWORKS which is missing when it is called from VLC>MEDIA>OPEN FILE. A...

I have 2 Ubuntu 17.10 systems. A couple of the press releases about this version of VLC mention hardware acceleration but I can not find it in preferences anywhere. Anyway, one of my systems an I5(an old 2500K) with no video card plays 4K UHD without problem my I3 system with a GEForce 1050 video ca...

Previously, up until mid-December at least, all played files were stored in the playlist until you manually cleared them. Now it is reset every time you play a file and only the last file played is displayed.

On Ubuntu 17.10 it is not possible to open a file on another PC through the main menu Media tab. You can only open local files stored on the host system. That this feature is missing is unbelievable in something called RC 5 and available through Ubuntu's Software Centre. It is available on the Windo...

Yeah, would be nice to get an answer, I mean, who uses 32 bit anymore.

This is the same error I have discovered: https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=116404

Refers to VLC 2.1.2 Rincewind, Win 7 x64 I have just upgraded from VLC 2.0.8 and have discovered that VLC is once again not properly supporting DTS files, either as stand alone or when enclosed in a container for movie viewing. In brief VLC will play DTS-HD Master Audio files but NOT DTS Digital Sur...

There is a problem when attempting to play a folder of mkv files (Media\Open Folder...). In cases other than a folder containing mkv files, VLC will play the files sequentially as expected, in the case of MKV files only the first file appears to be recognised. If the first file is playing and you ri...

Maybe not but it continues to happen, please see the log here, https://skydrive.live.com/redir.aspx?ci ... ZGZ3qlz41Y
