You can try another video output module: http://wiki.videolan.org/WindowsFAQ-2.0.x#Why_does_VLC_only_give_black.2C_white_or_garbled_.28or_other_visual_errors.29_video_output.3F You can also try with and without hardware acceleration. I don't suppose you know what every possible setting change means...

Sorry to bump, but I've noticed that the height of the video seems to be a factor. The above examples are in 360p. When I download and the watch the same video in 480p there is no crop issue. That's good to know when a higher resolution is available, but still doesn't solve the problem.

Check Tools -> Effects and Filters -> Video Effects because you may have the crop video filter enabled.

Nope. No boxes are checked and each side is set to 0px.

3.0.14; Windows 7 I have a problem where it seems on every video (or nearly every video) the VLC player cuts off the bottom few rows of the video. I've tried searching for solutions, but I'm not even seeing reports of the same problem. Here is the video played through Media Player Classic: https://i...

While I have no problem getting most YouTube videos to stream (though videos from certain channels just won't stream for whatever reason), my problem is videos tend to cut off early. It's usually when there's 5% or less video left. This has been going on for months (if not a year) and I can't find a...

I've been having the same problem. I thought it was just my internet.

Starting a couple days ago, I found I couldn't stream any video from the TFS Gaming channel. At first I thought something was screwed up with VLC's streaming, but videos from every other channel I've tried so far work like normal. Any idea why only videos from this channel won't work?

Yes, I already set the Normalizer.

I've been futzing more with the Compressor settings and that seems to help. I kind of figured out what the RMS and Knee settings are, but I still don't know how to change them to get the effects I want.

Try this thread if you've not seen it already.

Yeah, I already looked there.

The problem I'm still having is keeping every video played at the same level, particularly some videos end up louder.

I'm trying to set the compressor and normalizer so that when I open different video files from different sources the volume level ends up being roughly the same.

Also, I have no idea what the "RMS/peak" and "Knee radius" settings do.

Please help!
