The VideoLAN Forums

The quotes were necessary for the path and not the option. Unless you want to type it as c:\progra~1\videolan\vlc\vlc.exe dvd://d: which requires no quotes. The other possibility is that d: is not the DVD drive??? Actually, I have 2 optical drives, D: and F:, both of which will play DVDs, but I hav...

I have been under the impression AnyDVD circumvented regions and CSS coding for direct copying purposes? Assuming XP this should not circumvent the auto pop up allowing player selection in an auto play situation. However Windows 9x did not have this option. Try "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\v...

Hi All!! Its been a while since I've written in here, though I still continue to enjoy VLC to the fullest. I do have a question though, and, if its answered (FAQs, etc), I haven't found it: What's a good command-line string to make a DVD auto-start VLC? I have an umbrella program, "AnyDVD,"...

Which shouldn't matter, since any Divx/Xvid should play regardless. [...] And, to the moment, they do. What I'm looking for, if possible, is: 1. To understand when/how new or updated codecs are included in the player, and, 2. A way for users to expand beyond the basics, as they deem necessary, and ...

Ok, I think I'll do the same thing. Boy! Y'all aughta visit the Firefox forums some time! I'm a regular over there too, and you aught to hear the screams about VLC: They either love it or hate it -- no middle ground there... There's chatter about how to cripple it, where to move (stick) it, what .d...

Ok thx I will try that out and hopefully it will work

Actually, that works in Windoze NT, 2000 and XP; I don't know about 98, Me or other OS platforms... Which are you using?

As far as codec packs go you must lead a very sheltered or charmed life. I have run across people that love ffdshow, but personally I hate it. Perhaps it's all in what you are trying to do and how well it fits in with being the proper tool for the job. Simple example: DivX supports XviD but if you ...

Can I change another Xvid decoder on VLC? (without using the build-in one) You can't. Ok folks... To call the question: Is there a way to get VLC to access external codecs, or are we limited to what comes in the plugins directory? If the latter, then what provisions are made for codec improvements ...

Oops! I forgot to add that I'm running VLC and Firefox on Windows XP Pro.

I'm running VLC in Firefox 1.0.5.3 as well, but on W2000. VLC 0.8.5 bombed on me there as well, so I backed-off to VLC 0.8.4a, and the problem went away. Still a few glitches yet in VLC 0.8.5, I think...

Hi I have a movie in VLC media file format and my ipod converter or winavi will not convert the file vlc to avi or ipod mpeg 4. Can somone plz help me on how I can get the VLC media file onto my Ipod. thx Use Windoze Explorer to show you the true file type. You apparently have that turned off. In t...

-p is for showing help relative to a module. What would you want to use that for ?

Hm. Where can we get a list of command line switches and their meanings?

OK! Thank You! I will try it.

Enjoy!

.mov is a container! What are the formats inside the container (Audio & Video)???? Pardons for a "dummies" type question, but, how would one go about discovering what filetypes are inside a given .mov container? And, given that .mov is an Apple/Mac convention, wouldn't it/they likely ...

The real player alternative uses Gabest's MPC Search Gabest on the web or Media Player Classic Hmm. Isn't that for WMP classic, and not RP6 and below? I hate codec packs. :twisted: I've never seen one yet that is some way didn't screw up a machine. Hmm, again... Never had a problem with them -- alt...

Hi, I just wanted to ask if where is any possibility of vlc getting able to play any Real media File. I know what in the moment VLC is not able to play most o the Real Media Files cause to the lack of an open source decoder. Actually, its more that RealPlaything is supremely jealous of its code, an...

Sorr for my english ... :( and thanks for you respond ! I need to streaming to TCP not UDP because i have problems when use UDP for transmission live my tvtunner to network people ! The images transmission is good just only when people in the nework is not use a transfer large files ... When people...

Ya that kinda sorta works but QT keeps wanting to steal the extensions back and you need to edit the associations so this doesn't happen any more. This may be accomplished through the use of Windows Explorer, Folder Options, File Types. Still when you use the plug in the extensions are hard coded i...

The developers always seem more than willing to accept contributions or donations. This can be in the way of code if you are good at that kind of thing or MONEY. I tend to believe that this is the only way what you suggest will happen. Given that VLC is a single source code for all operating system...

CPU : AMD Duron 800Mhz OS : Windows XP SP2 Video Card : GeForce 4 MX 420 When I get a BSOD, it just sits there with an "IRQ Not less or equal" erroe message, no mention of any file. This message? "DRIVER_IRQ_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL ****STOP: 0X000000D1 (0X00000000,0X000000002,0X000000000,0...

This will really work for Video?? The files will play in there split condition?? Assuming they are renamed of coarse IE 001, 002 etc is not exactly acceptable or does it only work when you rejoin them?? How about an indexed file format like AVI? You may have to rename some filetypes from something ...

Yes for wmv3 video and some audio formats for which no open source decoder exists. Au contraire, mom ami: open source, maybe, but here's a couple of links that can provide all the codecs you need, or pass you on to more if needed: http://www.free-codecs.com/Codec_Pack_All_in_1_download.htm http://w...

This has become very common for either ported packages or single source packages for multiple operating systems. Think iTunes! Hmm. I really don't wanna think iTunes. I detest the package... Strange, that, since I'm experimenting with MozDev's SongBird package -- an attempted fusion of iTunes and W...

If you have Quicktime installed, regardless of how you have the MIME settings configured in both, Quicktime presumes it has the lead in most formats it handles, and passes that override configuration to the browser (Firefox, in my case...). However, if you uninstall Quicktime, then VLC will do all t...

Hello ! It is possible to stream a video to multicast using tcp not udp protocol ? :?: That would seem to depend on the method of transmission. If the originator sends via UDP, its very unlikely, without several translation applications, that you could transcode it to TCP. If you'll forgive the sim...

I still randomly get BSODs. I updated all my drivers to the latest versions, same for DirectX. All I can do is use v.0.8.1, as any later version gives me BSODs. What CPU and OS are you using? When you get a BSoD, is it the quick-reboot kind, or the one that hangs on the blue screen? If the latter, ...
