What is your OS ?
Which VLC version are you using ?
What is your hardware, especially CPU and GPU ?

Please open Tools -> Messages (set Verbosity to 2) before you start the playback, and then paste the full resulting log here or on Pastebin.com or on Justpaste.it if it's too long.

Read this guide: https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=156428 If it doesn't help then open Tools -> Messages (set Verbosity to 2) before you start the playback , and then paste the full resulting log here or on Pastebin.com or on Justpaste.it if it's too long.

On Windows 7 and above, the best video output module should be Direct3D 11: Tools -> Preferences -> Video Output = Direct3D11 Tools -> Preferences -> Input/Codecs Hardware accelerated decoding = D3D11 Video Acceleration Check also this: https://wiki.videolan.org/VSG:Video:Color_nVidia You can also t...

So my inital thoughths on this would be perhaps a codec is missing but then I have Windows 10 in which I had thought most codec are already included. VLC is using its own internal built-in codecs. Try another audio output module: http://wiki.videolan.org/WindowsFAQ-2.0.x#Crackles.2C_pops.2C_hizzes_...

Make sure to use an USB 3 port, those marked with the Super Speed SS logo, at least.
Also try with another USB port and with another USB wire.

By the way, how to enable email notification on this forum? I want to be notified when someone replied my post.

In your profile -> Board preferences -> Edit notification options

First, reboot your computer. Uninstall VLC. Then delete the whole C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\ folder if it's still exists, it might be C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\ if you're using the 64-bit version on XP 64. Also delete the whole %APPDATA%\vlc\ folder. Once done, reboot again and reinsta...

I should install Java Version Jre-8u321 but Oracle is prompting me to sign up for their account, I wonder if I should sign up, what's your opinion?

Sorry but I have no opinion, I'm not using Java and I'm not using Blu-ray discs either.

How come editing vlc_media.db was supported and then Unsupported? Is the database encrypted? The SQL editors I use all say it's not a database.

It's opening fine with the free and open source SQLiteStudio as well as DB Browser.

The messages windows should fill with a lot of messages, that's the messages log.

Looks like an older version of Java might be required, for some reason.

Try with a nightly build:

Or use a dedicated video tool such as AviDemux:

So to sum it up, when you play this file with VLC you can see the video. When you convert it to TS it works but it doesn't work when you convert it to MP4. Please open Tools -> Messages (set Verbosity to 2) before you start the conversion , and then paste the full resulting log here or on Pastebin.c...

Which file have you downloaded ? You need the x64 version, not the ARM one.

Please open Tools -> Messages (set Verbosity to 2) before you start the playback , and then paste the full resulting log here or on Pastebin.com or on Justpaste.it if it's too long. And yes, you need to install the Java Runtime Environment aka JRE. You may need to install a specific version of Java:...

You can not replace the source file while converting it. You need to convert the file then to manually replace it. VLC has no feature for deleting a file.

The jumplist is managed by the OS, VLC can't do anything about that.

When playing what kind of file ? What is your graphics card ?
Please open Tools -> Messages (set Verbosity to 2) before you start the playback, and then paste the full resulting log here or on Pastebin.com or on Justpaste.it if it's too long.

So it looks like you're trying to open this BD from a network: dvdnav error: Could not open \\192.168.0.171\Path\To\Folder\BD Folder with libdvdcss. dvdnav error: Can't open \\192.168.0.171\Path\To\Folder\BD Folder for reading dvdnav error: Device \\192.168.0.171\Path\To\Folder\BD Folder inaccessibl...

Fortunately, and obviously, you can't replace your source file, you must create another new file first.

Correct, so please open Tools -> Messages (set Verbosity to 2) before you start the playback, and then paste the full resulting log here or on Pastebin.com or on Justpaste.it if it's too long.

No luck trying the folder containing the BDMV folder, either.

That should work if you have installed the required libraries and files.
Read and apply this guide, read it carefully and don't miss any step:

Can you try with another USB port and with another USB wire ?
