Re: set vlc to repeat...but it keeps resizing the video!!

By having the <video auto scaling>, you keep the size of the video intact within the player's interface and by removing the <resize interface to video size>, you prohibit the player to change its size (independently) according to video size. You should be able to loop videos without having to worry...

Re: How to capture audio from a website? Not even possible in VLC?

You can loopback the audio into Windows VLC:

Code: Select all

vlc.exe wasapi:// :wasapi-loopback
You can then play, record or stream as normal.
What do I do with this? Sorry I don't know what any of those letters mean.

Re: How to capture audio from a website? Not even possible in VLC?

@ blahblahblahblahblah, Please post the URL to the site you want to record audio from. I have Windows 8.1 as well so I'll try to record the audio to see if it can be done. Why does the site make any difference? If the computer's making sound can't VLC either record it or not record it? TBH it feels...

How to capture audio from a website? Not even possible in VLC?

How do you capture (record) audio from a website? I mean when a website plays sound. I want to record that directly. At least one site says VLC can't do this and never will be able to while other sites say it can. Not sure how it can be so unclear whether it's even possible. Many sites have identica...

Re: Device is missing from Capture Device > Audio Device Name

You need to enable Stereo Mix in Windows: https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.ph ... 93#p517833
My computer doesn't have the things they're talking about.When you right-click the speaker mine doesn't have "show hidden devices" nor does it have "Stereo Mix".

I don't mean that Bebo thing, I mean that none of the choices work. I don't know what my "Device" is but whatever it is, it's not listed. I just want the sound that I hear in the computer. The only one that gives any sound is Microphone which gives you whatever the mic is picking up in the...

Is there a way to view a video while it's being recorded? Or, second choice if that's not possible, see the camera's view before recording starts so I can at least set it up? I only see black. This is not for live streaming. I only want to record video to my computer. The recording is working fine; ...

Wow, very strange, we've gone three whole years without someone saying "there's no problem, all you have to do is check something like Don't Resize", apparently unaware of all the dysfunction and complications being thoroughly and accurately explained in the other posts!

How to save playlist with one keystroke?

How do you save changes to a playlist? This should be one keystroke - ctrl-S or something similar - but instead it seems to be five steps including retyping the name of the playlist. Surely I am missing something. If you're in the playlist you have to: 1) Switch to a video window (i.e. not the playl...

Re: Videos have audio only; no image

OK sure. Can I just copy the APK from the computer to my phone (with USB) then double-click the APK? Play Store isn't working. Do I need to uninstall the existing version?

Videos have audio only; no image

VLC suddenly stopped showing any image when playing videos although the audio plays fine. What you see is the same thing you get when playing a music file: the regular audio controls such as play, stop, shuffle etc. and the big traffic cone (as for an audio file that has no album cover). v0.1.3-git ...

Re: A formal request for "Video Effects" Reset Button

VLC always and extremely irritatingly retains the last custom Video Effects settings from the previous run, no matter what I try! Not only that but (1) Having a reset button satisfies both kinds of user (the ones who want to reset, and the ones who don't), while the current status infuriates the fo...

The idea is to delete everything from the user, including email :)

Re: How to make captured video files smaller?

Convert/Save starts a small wizard-like interface
And then what do I click on? I don't know what any of the stuff in there is.

All I know is my videos are coming out at about 1 Gb per minute (not a typo...1 Gb) and they should be somewhere around 1 to 10 Mb per minute, roughly.

Re: How to make captured video files smaller?

Transcode wizard at Media -> Convert/Record
There is no such menu item. The closest is "Convert/Save" and it doesn't have anything called Transcode Wizard.

Then what do I do? I need a step-by-step walk through.

Re: Banned, account and all posts deleted

This could be a mistake too, since we have a LOT of spam and sometime automatic users deletions... And the auto deletion doesn't provide any notification, of any kind, to the banned user? Just one day, everything's wiped out of the system and all trace is gone, with no notice all? Did it ever occur...

How to make captured video files smaller?

How do I configure VLC so video captured from a webcam doesn't create huge file sizes? I spent a few hours Googling this and can't find anything.

My account and all my posts were deleted, and the moderator refuses to answer my emails. I asked one simple how-to question - that's it. What's going on? Don't you people have a program to program?

I opened a new account to ask this question.
