Automatic subtitle downloading?

Is it possible to make VLSub automatically download a subtitle when a video is played (at least for the first time) AKA without going manually into VLSub and searching for subtitles?

Re: Video stops after pausing?

Where did the .mkv file come from? The reason I'm asking is because I don't have a video with that file type on my system and therefore can't test it to see if the same thing happens. Pausing an .mp4 file and then continuing after a couple of minutes works normally. Thing is, it's not just that one...

Re: Video stops after pausing?

Been having same issue with VLC playing DVD images

Pauses, skips stutters, VLC is dreadful

still haven't found a solution yet, just put it down to VLC being buggy
I actually don't have stutters and pauses, I pause manually, and have no more video (just few frames and it stops) after resuming.

Re: Video stops after pausing?

The latter. So far it seems that disabling acceleration works without issues. I'll try DXVA and D3D11 again, but this puzzles me, as I said, nothing hw/sw has changed here for a good few years except VLC updates and driver changes. Oddly enough, I hoped a fresh Windows installation would help, but ...

Try changing the output module. See this thread: https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=155421

Re: Video stops after pausing?

Possibly due to a corrupted file somewhere. To fix open vlc and hit Ctrl + P to open prefs and then click the big Reset Preferences at the bottom. Exit and restart vlc.
Ironically, I literary installed a copy of fresh Windows 7 yesterday on another disk, and the issue still persists.

Re: Prevent VLC minimized with audio visualizations

When does it popup?
When the song changes.

It doesn't stay minimized, it probably recognizes the visualization itself as a video "file", so when the next song starts, it pops up, just like it does with video files (movies/series).

Re: Audio Normalization Answered

I found out that putting a negative normalization value (-1,6 to -3,2) works as expander , as in brings lower sounds up, so if anyone needs that, there you go. If you have unevenly loud songs, instead of making the loud one quiet (and then turning up your speakers or whatever), you can do the revers...

Hi, under All -> Audio options, there are: - Audio Gain - Replay Gain mode - Replay Preamp - Default Replay Gain My questions are: 1. Is Audio Gain just a preamp for any audio, eg. just raises default volume? Or is it something else? 2. Is Replay Gain mode tied with Replay Preamp in such way that it...
