The VideoLAN Forums

For instance, I notice that if I exit and restart, the Android VLC won't resume an audio track. I know that resuming is implemented in other versions of VLC. However, I have no idea if it is implemented in the Android version--which means I have no idea if this is a bug or not, and no idea how I sho...

I am running 2.0.4 off of Google Play. When I am playing audio files, I can see album art. When I press the icon that consists of three lines and a musical note, it shows a large album art picture. However, the album art picture is enlarged so as to fit the vertical size of the screen, which means i...

.iso can be a pain when you're using a SD card formatted in FAT32 and the size of the .iso is larger than the max file size. Besides, doesn't the non-android version of vlc already support vob folders?

The ticket is about playing a folder of files, not an ISO. Was it improperly closed?

https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/7563 was closed as fixed. This ticket is about playing DVDs on Android. How do you do this? I was able to navigate to the folder and play a single .VOB file, but I wasn't able to open the entire folder as a DVD complete with menus. If there's an option to do it i...

I get the same problemr with the 8/8 nightly, including the behavior where I do get smoothing if I use the wrong aspect ratio.

As some other players also have the problem, I wonder if the tablet just has a buggy video driver. (Although XBMC for some reason does not have the problem.)

Discovery: If I pause the file and then use the two arrow icon at the lower right to change the aspect ratio, for some reason, when I change the aspect ratio to "fit vertical" (and only that--not "fit horizontal", "4:3", or "16:9") then the smoothing now works...

Is there some kind of android test program which I can run and have it just try smoothing and see if it works?

Is there something I can run to determine if there are any missing AndroidSurface capabilities then?

The screenshot looks just like you'd expect 320 pixels enlarged to something less than 768 would look: each image pixel is about two screen pixels in width. The 720p version of the video doesn't show the same type of problem, of course. It turns out that when I set MX Player to software decoding, it...

I tried the earliest debug beta available, which was 5/13. It had the same problem. So did the most recent (July 3).

I already posted the logcat output. Is there any other information that you want that might be helpful in figuring this out?

Both tablets have the same resolution, 1024x768.

I have two tablets. One is an Insignia Flex (which has a cracked screen so I bought a new tablet, however, at this poiint the cracked screen is a cosmetic problem only). It runs Android 4.0.3. The second tablet is a Le Pan II, running Android 4.0.4. The tablets have very similar hardware. Both of th...

Version is 2.0.1 (a little old). Mageia 2.0. I want to play a DVD and put the audio in a file. I want to know how to actually navigate the menus to get the sound that I want--not just to play a single title and use "convert", since that is not a fully general solution to the problem. What ...

(This is a different tablet than the one I had before, which died; this is an Insignia Flex, running ICS 4.0.3. Hardware acceleration makes no difference to the result.) The newest vlc not only refuses to play this file, it refuses to even create a thumbnail, with the effect that I can't even start ...

Also, this happens with software decoding only (this platform doesn't actually have hardware decoding anyway).

No. It is an Idea USA CT802 tablet which uses an Allwinner A10 chipset.

It looks identical to an Eken A90 and seems to have identical specs as far as I can tell.

Here's what I get with logcat -d

It still doesn't work for me. Where did you get your vlc binary from? I was using nightlies.videolan.org/build/armv7-android-neon , version dated 28-Nov-2012 01:15. It claims to be Revision 1777d34. Are there other developers who can try the file on different devices to see if it works? I notice tha...

Were you able to reproduce the problem?

Should I open a ticket for it?

The reason the subtitles didn't work on Linux was that I hadn't installed the vlc ass plugin. The "Unfortunately there is nothing you can do" message was misleading me. Once I install the plugin, Linux is fine so only Android doesn't work.

It doesn't really crash in the sense of exiting VLC and producing a log, but it halts after a second or so of playing audio (and doesn't play video). The file plays fine on the native player and on XBMC, though subtitles aren't perfect. It is completely perfect on Linux with mplayer. vlc on Linux wo...

If it's not there because of US patent problems, I think we've got a while to wait....

Why then does the built-in player (which says "Super HD Player" but seems to be a renamed Gallery) play 720p without any skipping when VLC cannot do 480p? (I tried a stock Gallery for ICS and it also played them full speed.) Edit: The tablet contains an Allwinner A10 chip which includes th...

Sorry. My log is at http://www.rahul.net/arromdee/log.txt
