Oh... I realized what I was missing.. I had to do 'Show All' to see the option you were talking about. I have been playing with it and perhaps I found I bug (or I'm missing something). LEt me explain: Original file: 19Mb I reset preferences on VLC, Quality-vased VBR = 23 I encode and I get a file of...

IMO it's all about the CRF value. I have explained it here: https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=158610 https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=158117 I didn't see any CRF option on Tools -> Preferences -> Show settings: All -> Input/Codecs -> Video codecs -> x264 (similar...

When I convert with VLC to x264 with default parameters, I get files about 1/2 size . What is the equivalent in Avidemux?

Is the quality option I see equivalent to Avidemux Quantizer? IS it like Constant Quantizer in Avidemux (https://www.avidemux.org/admWiki/doku.p ... rial:h.264)?

Nightly build didn't work

Anyway, I tried again with 3.0.8 and it works. But problem doesn't seem to be just the conversion. IT's the way VLC plays it.
I played the same converted videos with avidemux w/o problems.

Hi, Sometimes I convert a file and the resulting file doesn't play for the first ~5 secs, like if there was a sync problem. Doesn't happen always. And some files that were converted correctly with 3.0.8 are not when I convert them again with 3.0.16. Is this known? Any solution? H264 + MPEG AAC mp4a ...

Oh.. tx. But my CCWGT is already setup.
The problem I have is just streaming to it.

Sorry.. what exactly is not supported? Can you quote from the link above?

In case it's not clear, I'm trying to cast from 'VLC on Windows' to 'Chromecast with Google TV' device.

This is just for a x264 1080p short video
I Do 'Playback > Renderer > select 'Chromecast''. The chromecast device seems to start loading, but it stays like this permanently.
Did I miss any setting?

I am not familiar with it. IS something I can do with an Android or a Windows?
IT doesn't decode the video when sending it?

I had the same issue even: - Without SMB (I get a 10 minutes file and I save it on CCwGT internal memory) - If I use another application (like Kodi, FX Explorer) to play it So I suspect it's a problem with CCwGT and its ability to decode. But I read other boxes with same CPU can do it just fine. Goo...

When I'm playing a video with VLC, is there a way of knowing which HDR content it has?
I understand HDR10 metadata is associated to the whole file. HDR10+ and DolbyVision is associated to each scene, so it may be difficult to obtain this info from the file.

I tried 20210708-0426 and didn't allow me to open the input file

Both of those issues seem like bugs, no?
Didn't know 4.0 was there. I tried 3.0.16 and still seeing the same problems.

Sorry for the delay.. I finally got around to give it some tries

I add in this field ' :file-caching=300 :sout-setid-id=1 :sout-setid-new-id=0' and some variations

Still, audio stream is still the first one

Am I doing it wrong? Any ideas?

How do you use them within the graphic program?

I'm just using the convert option of the VLC windows app?

Are you saying there is a way of doing it perhaps form a command line? I was not even aware VLC had a command line. Can you explain me how would I do that?

Sorry.. depends what?
The order in which they show when I do Ctl+J. If I do the conversion with HandBrake, I keep seeing first the video track
Or are you talking about how Windows displays the icons?

I have one .mp4 file with 1) video stream 2) audio stream (in that order, according to VLC codec information Ctrl+J) After converting, the order of streams is switched: 1) audio stream 2) video stream IS there a way to force the same order? Any problems I could run into. For starters, it seems Micro...
