Re: Open Directory is broken again

I fixed it, but it's frustrating because I still don't know what I did to break it. I did a "reset preferences" and all is well. Oh well, I guess a "fix" is whatever makes it works again. I wish I could go into "all" preferences and see what gets screwed up, but I'll ta...

Re: Open Directory is broken again

More info - I noticed my laptop running windoz had auto updated with the latest VLC Media player. The "Open Directory" line is gone from the drop down menu, so I suspect this has something to do with the problem on my Ubuntu machine. I tried the "open folder" command on my audio ...

Re: VLC fails to open after Windows 8.1 update

I ran ino this exact problem. It turned out to be "the straw that broke the camels back" for me. I dumped Windoz forever, downloaded UNIX and never looked back. Sold the Ipad as well. I'm tired of corporate bozos trying to dictate how I play MY music and videos. I never pirate music or vid...

Re: Skipping forward in HD video causes stutter

Forgot to add - There was a LARGE Windows 7 update last week, maybe the update stepped on a VLC file and that's why uninstalling and then re-installing VLC worked for me? Give it a try...

Re: Skipping forward in HD video causes stutter

I'm having a very similar problem since the recent update. Video stutters regardless of the settings. I thought upgrades were to make things better?
