Hello, the great project Vxkex that allows windows 7 os to use windows 10/11 os softwares has been removed from github, some say microsoft fears this project so they banned it from github, others say the great develloper of this vital project Mr @vxiiduu , his mother is sick and can't continue to de...

UPDATE : Preview doen't work in our beloved VLC, the last hope was in Potplayer ! I was destroyed, Ptoplayer told me it fixed the video preview problem that appeared with chromium 131 kernel and I installed the new stable version of Potplayer , where only once, I can playback the streaming video usi...

Hi, yt-dlp can encounter bugs or problems for example youtube throttle yt-dlp, or get banned, so i think it's good to have an alternative like streamlink that can playback youtube videos, w hope please the future VLC 4 will add support for streamlink like this open-source media player GrdiPlayer bas...

Great ! Thank you for your help !

and Mr @Lotesdelere, anyway the majority of black bands are light, barely perceptible but still perceptible, removing them or not there is not much difference except on my small 10 inch pc screen, we are talking about 1 cm or less of black bands !

and let's notice zoom of VLC doesn't work in my eee pc windows 7 os, my graphics card has not been updated for a long time, is that the cause of that? it's sad, I would have liked to try different zoom values of VLC ​​:(

Yes but i don't think the work is meant to be seen on a small screen, surely it's better to watch on a cinema screen or home tv .... I saw an option "fit video" frame adjust to window or something like in VLC4 .... VLC4 suddenly stops working so I can't test streaming videos, will this opt...

Thank you for these explanations Mr Rémi, merci ! yes I think these black bars wouldn't bother me if I had a big screen, but I have a small screen with wide borders and I watch a lot of anime in vostfr so every square centimeter counts for optimal subtitle reading comfort even if the distortion is n...

Mr Lotesdelere, I followed the advice submitted in the links you posted, I set the aspect ratio to 21:9, used the shortcut c to crop, and tried many other settings, I tried the same video with potpalyer and it's obvious, VLC removes part of the video while potplayer with its "stretch" opti...

Great! Thank you very much Mr Lotesdelere for your precious help ! I will try! And sorry for the delay, I did not see your answer, I realize that the VLC forum does not automatically send a notification for each answer, and that we must enable the notifications of each issue ourselves...

Mr @Rémi : import cookies to media player is important because users complain that youtube throttles bitrates when using external media player and yt-dlp has to import youtube cookies in some cases to fix this problem, we hope please VLC 4 will be able or add feature to import youtube cookies and th...

and we hope please Mr Rémi VLC 4 beta, if compatible with windows 7 os 32 bits, VLC will use the alternative version of yt-dlp for windows 7 os 32 bits made by Mr Nicolaasjan : this alternative yt-dlp is recomanded by official yt-dlp as fork for keeping support of windows 7 os, windows 8 os.... : ht...

Great ! Thank you Mr Rémi for this happy information that makes us smile :) So I was impatient and I installed VLC 4 beta months ago, I happily saw the long-awaited fit video option that allows you to stretch video and eliminate black bars on my small 10-inch screen, and I tried to playback youtube ...

Yes, it seems there is probelm with certificate of vidmoly, but even with other streaming site, VLC can't preview video with Open in Vlc extension, and i could preview with VLC the same video with Open in Vlc in Firefox

Hi, Here i make new issue to post effective solutions to fix this problem and add support for yt-dlp, yt-dlp can have some possible problems to import youtube cookies after chrome makes it difficult lock the export of cookies to yt-dlp but this problem does not seem to exist for firefox, some say we...

Hi, my main computer broke down so I came back to use my little eee pc windows 7 OS 32 bits 10 inches, and I use the Open in Vlc and Cat Catch extensions to send streaming videos to VLC player and often there are annoying black bars in the videos displayed by VLC, every pixel counts in my small scre...

NEW UPDATE : Mr Andy Portmen the developer tells me now and now reconfirms his assertion that the preview problem is not linked to its extension optimized for VLC Open-in-Vlc but the problem is related to VLC! : https://github.com/andy-portmen/open-in-vlc/issues/74#issuecomment-2530767575 "You ...
