Using VLC 3.5.4 on Android TV to play a video located on the network neighborhood (SMB). The playback stops randomly even though I'm using an excellent wired connection.

I hope that VLC fixes this problem one day.

My PC has a wired network connection.

Hitchhiker, thanks a lot for your help. Unfortunately it doesn't have anything to do with my Windows powersaving settings because like I said, when I launch VLC normally, my PC doesn't sleep during video playback. The PC sleeps only when a video is launched through the VLC service. I think the bug i...

Hello, I launched the VLC Service : "C:\Program Files (x86)\VLC\vlc.exe" -I ntservice --ntservice-install --ntservice-extraintf=http --video-on-top Then I used a smartphone app called "VLC Remote" to launch videos remotely. The problem is that the PC sleeps during VLC playback. H...

I am using Windows 7 and there is no "Change high DPI settings" in the compatibility screen.

I hope the developers fix this issue on the official stable release (not the nightly) as soon as possible because 4k users are in real trouble using VLC.

I have the same issue.

None worked (the video plays normally but the seeking is slow).

It seems it's not using D3D11 for some reason and to fall back to D3D9. Can you check which video module is used during the playback ? Tools -> Messages -> Modules Tree D3D9 is used. Can you also try with forcing the decoding threads to 1 ? Tools -> Preferences -> Show settings: ALL Input/Codecs ->...

The delay is even longer without hardware acceleration.

anyone ?

Hello, On x265/HEVC videos, the seek is slow with VLC (more or less 2 seconds) but not with MPC-HC which is instantaneous. Since a video is better than words, watch this : https://youtu.be/bTtC7VfAp4s I know that I can enable the "Fast Seek" option on VLC but it moves from keyframe to fram...

Thanks for your help Lotesdelere

Hi again. Now I can prove that it is a bug of VLC because MPC recognizes my preferred language as you can see in this video :

I hope VLC fixes this bug in a future update

AVI Demux doesn't allow to set a track as default, it just allows to define an order. The Media Info I posted above is from a video I remuxed myself without defining a default track so I'm a bit confused that you said that the english track was the default track.

Thanks for trying to help, but it doesn't work with "fre" nor "fr".

Not sure how to set a track as default. When I remuxed that video with AVI Demux, I didn't mark any track as default, I'm learning it from you.

Hello, VLC ignores my preferred audio track language. I set it to french ("fra"), but when I play a video, VLC keeps selecting english (the 1st audio track). You will easily understand with this video I made to explain you : :arrow: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HW591gC7NxY Thanks for an...
