Re: M3U files: problems with certain characters?

It seems the square brackets are the problem, and url encoding works to fix it. This works: 01 Symphony in C major K213c%5bK208%5d- I. Molto allegro.flac 02 Symphony in C major K213c%5bK208%5d- II. Andantino.flac 03 Symphony in C major K213c%5bK208%5d- III. Presto assai.flac Are there any other char...

M3U files: problems with certain characters?

I have two .m3u files that at first glance seem like they should behave the same. These are both on an ubuntu 18.04 machine. One is /media/jrv/seagate4T/music/Adams, John/BBC Music v11 n2- Andriessen- Short Ride in a Fast Machine, The Chairman Dances, Harmonium/m3u.Harmonium.m3u and its contents are...

Re: VLC jumps initial 0,5 seconds playing audio files

On further exploration, the problem I am experiencing may be related to disk retrieval. The disk is a USB (i.e. slow) drive. Under load it seems to slow down sufficiently to cause vlc to miss data it needs, or so I think. Under tools, preferences, all, input/codecs, scroll down to "Advanced&quo...

Re: VLC jumps initial 0,5 seconds playing audio files

I I have vlc 3.0.8 on ubuntu, and I regret to say that I am still getting skips at starts of tracks. I have been experimenting with randomly generating .m3u files then using vlc --play-and-exit foo random_items.m3u to play them. Not every track skips at start but a lot do. My first completely uninfo...

Re: FLAC skipping in Rincewind

Roger that. I found a copy of vlc 2.0.8. That version also skips/judders, but not as badly nor as often. VLC may have been skipping for ever, but I didn't notice until 2.1.1 when it became really hard to attribute to windows.

Thanks,
JR

FLAC skipping in Rincewind

I am experiencing skipping playing .flac files on Windows 7 using VLC version 2.1.1. I guess it is related to this (https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=115224), i.e. it is not OS-specific, but I can't confirm this myself. My .flac files were all encoded using FLAC 1.2.1 (https://xiph...
