Re: VLC 2.0.1 crashes playing M2TS file

Thanks for the reply. No, that isn't what I mean. The file has two audio tracks. One is AAC/LC/LATM (main audio track) and the other is HE-AAC/LC/LATM (commentary for the visually impaired). The video/audio starts with some pre-programme intro (announcement, advert etc.), then continues with the act...

VLC 2.0.1 crashes playing M2TS file

I have a lot of M2TS files (DVB-T2 transmission streams recorded on a Panasonic PVR in 'DR' mode). I routinely use HandBrake to rip these fils into a format suitable for my Apple TV and as part of that process I use VLC to preview the files. Normally this works just fine buyt there is a particular s...

Re: VLC 2.0 for OS X - why font cache rebuild every session?

Thank you for the information. But ~/Library/Application Support is suitable for storing configuration files, static data(dictionary, script, template file) or so. Although we will consider about the issue. ATM, the cache directory is configured when building fontconfig library. So, we cannot easil...

Re: VLC 2.0 for OS X - why font cache rebuild every session?

I don't know you can configure or you can't. Please ask your system administrator. I am the System Administrator :-) I've tried to find some information on this in various places including Apple's own Developer web-site but so far I haven't found anything useful. Please tell me what was the problem...

Re: VLC 2.0 for OS X - why font cache rebuild every session?

@nkoriyama Perhaps 'incorrect' is too strong a word. This location is fine for: 1. Any Mac user with a normal (i.e. not Mobile) profile. 2. Storage of any files that do not need to gbe uaranteed to persist across login sessions. Apple seem to have mandated that, for users with Mobile profiles, ~/Lib...

Re: VLC 2.0 for OS X - why font cache rebuild every session?

I've upgraded to 2.0.1 but I still see this behaviour. My Mac is part of an Active Directory domain and all the users have 'Mobile' profiles. This means that for each such user ~/Library/Caches gets cleared out on every logoff. Seems like VLC may (probably incorrectly) be storing it's 'font cache' i...

VLC 2.0 for OS X - why font cache rebuild every session?

I just upgraded to VLC 2.0 on my Mac running OS X Lion 10.7.3. I now observe that the first time I launch VLC after logging in it rebuilds the font cache; it does not do this for subsequent launches within the same login session. Is this normal/expected? It takles maybe 60 seconds to do and so is so...
