Re: Youtube videos on VLC

Yes, that is exactly what we have been discussing. The message on https://code.videolan.org informing the would-be contributor that 2FA is required lists mostly smartphone-only "apps", only hinting at the existence of "desktop" programs which one must go hunting for. Hence, the ...

Re: VLC m3u8 stream recording stops at timestamp rollover

I know, that this is a workaround, but it works: Afterwards, I found this solution on the wiki . So now one has 3 possibilities: As in the wiki, just save the long code from the right of the QR code and use it with oathtool to manually generate the PIN every time one needs it.

Re: Youtube videos on VLC

The very concept of "two-factor" authentication is to use a just-generated code or PIN every time you log on to make it harder for hackers to get access to your account. If you can't or won't install some software on your phone to do it, oathtool or WinAuth should enable you to do so usin...

I had the same problem, and was able to authenticate by installing the "desktop" Authy application ( https://authy.com/download/ ) on a computer. You can then use the alphanumeric "code" from code.videolan.org instead of the QR code, but you have to create an account with Authy ...

Just tested the "real" 3.0.16 windows x64 build and got no problems with MP4, AVI and MP3. But this is probably because I have a built-in Intel graphics here. My Windows 8.1 system is ancient, some Core 2 era Pentium from 2009. And current Windows 10 (20H2) is i5-3xxx, with also some Intel...

Speed issues and Cache changes after update from 3.0.8 to 3.0.10.

Following problem: normally, I see the videos speed-up, on something like 1,5 or 2x speed. Till version 3.0.8 the change of the speed happened flawlessly, but after the update to the version 3.0.10 some silence, near one second, happened after the speed change.
