Any ideas?

yes, @Spike1, I get that; but it's not an answer to my question. I already said that VLC can play the file without problem. It's when trying to 'cast' the file that I get the message, which, I'm by now convinced, is just plain wrong. Mabel It most definitely is an answer. Chromecast doesn't support...

Did you try unchecking the "Settings > Advanced > Prefer SMB 1" preference? The problem is still there despite it being unchecked. For each folder until I get to the video I want to see, I must enter the username and password each time. Once I got to the video I wanted, it recognized I ha...

I stream videos to VLC from my NAS. Before I enter EACH and EVERY folder to get to the video(s) I want to play, I am prompted to enter the username and password for my NAS. The "Remember password" box is checked, so why does this occur? When I come back out of VLC and back in, I have to en...

I have VLC on my Nvidia Shield TV. I am watching a video that is 3:46:17. When I stop the video early on, like at 00:12:32, and open VLC later, it continues from 00:12:32. However, if I stop the video near the end, like at 03:43:00, and open VLC later, it plays from 0 again. How do I tell VLC to not...

Christmas and Santa are religious (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas/) and I DON'T CELEBRATE false pagan holidays and don't want to see rubbish on my PCs. No asking me if I celebrate Christmas, simply shoving Christmas nonsense down our throats. If you think Santa and Christmas ("Christ's...

I am running VLC on my Nvidia Shield TV. It works very well. However, I have a problem. I am watching a four-hour video. I was a couple of hours into it, then I paused it to go and do something else. When I un-paused it, it started playing from around the five-minute mark instead of from the two hou...

Of course, it should be noted that only Blu-ray discs with one movie will play in VLC. Because VLC doesn't use Blu-ray menus, discs with more than one movie per disc (i.e. Mill Creek's double feature of Happy Birthday to Me and When a Stranger Calls) won't play in VLC.

Thanks.

How can I get VLC to play a Blu-ray ISO file? I load it and just see the cone icon.

Check out this YouTube video. I got VLC to play Blu-ray after watching it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?annotation_id=44dabd1e-aabe-4873-9b89-ccbb049653a5&feature=cards&src_vid=tZAbZQDOOio&v=zHdZWMb3qZk I'm running Windows 7. Keep in mind that the instructions provided by http://vlc-blu...

Anyone?

How do I back up my podcast subscriptions in VLC? Thank you.

Jim

Great. Thanks.

I like the black background on the closed captions in VLC 2.1.0 since that is how it is on TV. Also, sometimes the closed captions on certain DVDs and TV shows change position if there are two people talking, like one person on the left and one on the right. With the old-style white VLC captions in ...
