Re: How to open NDI video using VLC

I used the NDI Virtual Input tool, which mimics a webcam. That said, an NDI HX stream cannot be passed over the local area network unless Media streaming in turned on in the Windows OS. I learned the hard way.

Re: Audio playback issues; audio cuts out at regular intervals

I had a colleague run a test using a smart phone and a laptop. Audio dropouts occurred on both devices and not simultaneously. We have found a workaround using an alternative application. I much prefer VLC and just hope the issue gets resolved.

Re: Error: main warning: playback way too early (-141928): playing silence

A colleague installed VLC Medial Player on two separate devices. Audio dropouts occurred but not simultaneously. As a temporary solution we have installed PotPlayer, and the audio dropouts no longer happen. PotPlayer is not perfect either, as the audio has a lot of background noise - something that ...

Re: Error: main warning: playback way too early (-141928): playing silence

Installed the Anycam.iO application for comparison to the VLC Media Player. Audio and video work perfectly except that CPU and memory usage usually exceed 70 percent. When opening the OBS Studio application in addition to VLC , CPU usage goes to 100 percent and audio and video begins to clip. When u...

Re: Error: main warning: playback way too early (-141928): playing silence

We are experiencing the same issue and it does not seem to matter if the laptop is connected to the LAN via wi-fi or Ethernet cable. We are endeavouring to use RTSP streaming from a Ubiquiti Networks IP camera. Caching settings have been increased so the problem is not as extensive as with the defau...

Re: Audio playback issues; audio cuts out at regular intervals

I may have got around the problem. Under Preference/All/Stream Output/Stream output mixer cashing (ms), I changed the setting to 3000. Although there is the occasional instant audio blip, timestamp conversion failed errors are no longer occurring. Things look very promising.

Re: Audio playback issues; audio cuts out at regular intervals

Below are portions of the VLC Player messages log file. The audio drop coincide with "Timestamp conversion failed...." and "Could not convert timestamp <####> for faad". I noticed this issue was raised in an earlier forum message from 2015. I did not see a resolution, although st...

Re: Audio playback issues; audio cuts out at regular intervals

I noticed that members' code is contained in a window. Is this done by selecting "Code", or "messages", or "logfile", or something else? I should point out that I selected verbosity "2" under Tools>Messages and noticed that I was getting numerous timestamp con...

Re: Audio playback issues; audio cuts out at regular intervals

Our organization has successfully streamed using RTSP in the past using the VLC Media Player. The stream is coming from a 1080 IP camera (Ubiquiti Networks UVC-G3). For the last few months, the audio cuts out between two and six seconds randomly - effectively disabling our ability to stream. I shoul...
