Trouble with old .mov file

The file works fine in QuickTime 7 (on Mac OS X 10.13.6), and mpv. It's using the "Apple Graphics" codec "smc ", and PCM sound "twos". In VLC, there is no video at all, and the sound is all messed up. (It does not work in QuickTime X on Mac OS X 11 Beta, due to the remo...

Re: VLC's infamous ugly logo - Join forces to combat the traffic cone!

I wonder if "Skip the loop filter" could also be applied to H.265. Then, maybe some more videos could play on some older systems. Several years ago I had a very old PowerPC Mac laptop and I would want to play H.264 files. The only way to play some of them smoothly was to set "Skip the...

Re: VLC 3.0 "Show video within the main window"

Sorry I must have been blind or something, or maybe comparing it to v2 where the option was under Interface. Thanks for your help.

VLC 3.0 "Show video within the main window"

Where is the option for "Show video within the main window"? I want to turn this OFF.

I want the video in a separate window all of the time.

Thank you for your assistance.
