I have setup a shared folder on my Windows 11 PC to share video files to other devices on my WiFi network. I have a Amazon Firestick and have tried to use VLC to see my shared folder, but VLC doesn't show any files. I know the shared folder works properly because if I launch MX Player or ES File Exp...

On my Windows 10 PC I have setup a shared folder and given Everyone on the network read access. I am unable to see my PC on VLC. This used to work. I would go to Local Network. This would then recognize my PC allowing me to open the shared folder and access files within it. Steps I've taken so far: ...

I'm working on a similar issue. I have Amazon FireTV and I'm trying to use VLC to see video files on my PC over the network. My PC is Windows 10, and I've properly setup and tested the shared folder. ES File Explorer can see the files just fine. For some reason VLC is incapable of seeing my PC. I ha...

Found a workaround while playing with latest VLC on Windows today. The solution is actually easy. Tools -> Preferences -> Advanced Preferences Interface -> Main Interface -> QT Max Volume Displayed: 200 This will change the range the audio can max out at. Therefore allowing it to go past 125 and sav...

I have subtitles enabled, but I only want them to play if they are not speaking English. Is there a way to turn subtitles on, but not display them when English is being spoken? The subtitle file I downloaded includes both languages (all spoken subs). I guess I'm asking if there is a way to filter th...

Try downloading literally any torrented video and you will encounter this issue. To say that you should cap the volume to 100% is a cop out lazy answer. As a fellow developer, we give users more shared preferences, not make excuses. Not all video quality is the same. This is simply a way for the use...

This has nothing to do with how my system is setup. Audio on every other application works fine. The problem is with the recording of the video. Poorly ripped videos have low volume. To compensate for their bad rip, I set the audio to 200%. This is a common problem with torrented video files. All we...

I think it may be how the vid was ripped. There is only one subtitle track. So it seems like all or nothing. You can't set it only translation.

I need a way to only display only subs in Spanish, while ignoring the audio in English, example is the show Narcos. I have tried setting settings to Show all, then enabled the following. Tools->Preferences -> Input/Codecs - Audio Language = English - Subtitle Track = 1 - Subtitle Track ID = -1 Curre...

Every time VLC starts it does not save the previous audio level. I like to keep it at 200% for gain but it always starts at 100%. I have tried the Audio setting "Always reset audio start level to:" however it limits the scale to only 125% and does not let the user manually input a higher v...

Previous versions of VLC used to save the volume. I usually set it to 200%. However, in the most recent version it keeps resetting to 100%. I have reviewed the audio settings and made sure that "Always reset auto restart level to" is UNCHECKED. Please review the flag which saves the volume...
