Re: VLC tries to connect with Guest account

Hello NasGuest. Currently, VLC try first to connect to the guest account, then ask for the user or fetch the user that was previously used. I could do the following change that is more logical: - The first time ever, VLC try to connect to guest than ask for user/password. - Next times, VLC connect d...

Re: iOS SMB auth failing

I’m not entirely sure. How would I check? (It’s a fairly default Ubuntu install of samba from about a year ago, so whatever the defaults are. I’d expect they’re pretty modern.) I didn’t explicitly mention, but this had been working fine for ages, and stopped working roughly a week ago, give or take...

Re: Disabling Track and Subtitles in VLC4

Hello,

libvlc_video_set_spu and libvlc_audio_set_track API are deprecated in VLC 4.0, they will be removed soon.

You should use +libvlc_media_player_select_track() introduced with https://git.videolan.org/?p=vlc.git;a=c ... 4a5983bfab

Tested 3.0.6: a little less laggy but still out of sync. Hello aargl, I'm trying to reproduce your issue. I'm on macOS 10.14.2 with VLC 3.0.6 using a .ts dump from free (France 2): so it's H264 + ADTS. But I'm not able to detect the out of sync issue. Would it be possible to send me your .ts file ?...

But I still don't understand why it shows that error at all. With usb surround sound card, it seems that there is no distinction between configured for stereo and not configured. I think it's a regression from VLC 2.2.x but now I don't have a surround usb sound card to do my tests, so I can't be su...

Re: VLC 3.0.1 - Can't play 4K HEVC 10 bit HDR because of high CPU

It's a dead end. You won't be able to play such high resolutions.

VLC on macOS can only improve the way it render software decoderd pictures to gain maybe between 5 and 20% of CPU time.

Re: h.264 fails

Hello,

The HW decoder of the macbook can't handle this file. Even quicktime can't play it.
it will now fallback to the SW decoder in that case, but you could then miss few seconds of playback.
This will be available in the next nighly.
