Use netsync to sync it.

I think there is a misunderstanding. We don't stream. We both have the movie on our local machine. we start it at countdown and after 15 minutes he's 20 seconds behind (audio and video)

This can either be a performance problem on the slower computer, or an imprecise clock on either of them.

I doubt this...both systems are almost identical, and it only occurs with mkv files, not with iso's or any other file.

Me and my friend are watching movies so now and then, mostly MKV files. we both start VLC 2.0.4 at the same time, but after a short while he is a few seconds behind me. After syncing this problem re-occurs...any ideas? All drivers are up-to date at both ends.

I was too early. Now at 4 minutes before the end of the episode the problem occurs...but my other computer with an Nvidia card had the same problems as before. There the install of the 64bits version doesn't solve the problem. I am going nuts here..

What I did: Uninstalled 32 bit version and installed latest 64-bit nightly build. The problem I had is now gone. After 15 minutes playtime I had no issues with the subs and no errors in the messagebox. Seems that the problem has to do with running 32bit version on 64bit win7?

But it happens only with DVB subs, any other subs is working perfectly.

I don't get it either...It starts fine...for about 5 minutes, and suddenly the subs get cut off and the second line of the subs vanishes....every time at the same point....over and over again...and I tried it on multiple systems...with different chipsets, soundcards, graphic cards etc....and it's no...

Oh, I thought i had it all copied...will try again..

Okay, what do I do? tools->messages, verbosity 2 and then? Or do you mean other logs?

Catalyst version 12.2, but as said, my other computer has an Nvidia GTX7800 card, and with the same file, the subs vanish (partly) at exactly the same time.

Trying right now

I will do anything to help you, and I will keep the testfile available.

What does Tools -> Messages (set Verbosity to 2) complain when subtitles vanish?

I will check, will be back soon

I recorded a show from HISTORY HD including dutch DVB subs. I start viewing, select the subs and everything is fine, but after a little while the subs are being cut off, the second subline is gone. I tested the same show at 2 computers, and they are doing this at exactly the same time...
