How to play .264 files?

I've been happily playing those files on version 3.0.2 of VLC. No problems. I just change the demuxer to H264 video demuxer, hit save, then drag the .264 file in to vlc and it plays no problem. Yet so far every version since vlc can't play .264 files. Why? I'm sure the dev's have changed something o...

Re: How do I play .264 files in v3.0.11 ?

The camera program can convert them to .mp4 But in VLC it used to be able to play the files if I changed the demuxer to either HEVC/H.265 or H264 video demuxer. On the other versions I've tried it doesn't work. I noticed quite a few camera company sites are recommending VLC because it worked in some...

Re: How do I play .264 files in v3.0.11 ?

So I've tried; 3.0.11 3.0.9.2 3.0.8 and 3.0.7.1 None work with the .264 format. So I downgraded back to 3.0.2 and it works instantly. I just don't understand why the latest versions don't work, unless the team removed that function. If they did, is there any addon we can apply to vlc to bring the fu...

How do I play .264 files in v3.0.11 ?

I have a cctv camera and it exports files in .264 files. I've been using v3.0.2 for a while, mainly because of its ability to play these .264 files perfectly by manually changing the demuxer to H264 or HEVC/H.265 I thought I'd try upgrading my version to the latest one and now when I try and play th...

Snapshots appear as a green picture

I'm using an older version of VLC, version 3.0.2 Vetinari (as the newer versions stutter when playing my cctv camera footage). I'm trying to take a snapshot in a video, but everytime I take one its just a green picture. I searched the forum for answers and it was suggested to turn off hardware accel...

Re: Video rotation not possible anymore

That fixed my problems. I downloaded the 64bit version though. But all is good :) Thanks for the advice.

Re: Video rotation not possible anymore

I'm having the same problem.. also with the zoom function too.

This version for me has the most bugs. I hope they update it soon.

Re: Problems with H.264 after upgrade from 2.2.8 to 3.0.1

This is interesting. I upgraded from VLC 2.2.8 64bit win10 to 3.0.1 64bit win10 and the bugs I get seem to stop the video playing but the audio carries on.

So whatever these bugs are seem to only affect the video part.

Re: 3.0.1 seems to have bugs

No problem posting on the thread :)

I wonder if something like that is happening to me, the portrait/landscape thing, as I'm sure the zoom worked at one point but now stopped.

I hope they fix the bugs soon. I would have thought the zoom and rotate features would have been tested more.

3.0.1 seems to have bugs

I've used VLC for as long as I can remember and 3.0.1 is the first version I've had problems with. If I play a video and I go in to the settings to tick the box for rotation the video image stops playing (audio continues). If I tick it and save the setting then close vlc and re-open it again to play...
