JPG snapshots are blocky - jpeg quality issue?

I'm trying to get screenshots (snapshots) of a video I have, but the saved snapshots are really blocky. The source is very clear & detailed, and the resolution is the same, but there are very clear 8x8 blocks in my image. There is some detail there, but it appears to be incredibly bad JPEG artif...

Re: VLC crashes immediately when trying to play DVDs

Is there a way to write the log to a file? AFAIK that feature is still broken. Can you play VIDEO_TS content correctly from hard drive? Yeah, I ended up dragging & dropping the .VOB files one at a time into VLC. I know I could do a playlist, I was just too lazy to do it. So the video files play...

VLC crashes immediately when trying to play DVDs

I just upgraded to 1.0.1, and now I can't play DVDs. I tried dragging the DVD drive from explorer to VLC (which usually works), as well as dragging the root DVD folder from a ripped copy on my HD. In both cases, vlc immediately crashes (just disappears). Restarting vlc gives the "VLC Crash Repo...

Ahh, that worked. Putting in "dvd://c:/some path/dvd" (including the quote) allowed VLC to play it as a dvd. Before I file this as a bug, is there any valid reason why quotes are required? Can you play multiple urls that are space-delimited from the UI? If not, spaces should be automatical...

Problems with spaces when playing DVD's

When the path to my ripped DVD files includes spaces, VLC has a lot of trouble. I go to the File->Open Disc menu, and under "Customize" I put in the URL of my files: dvd://C:/Some Path/DVD. This doesn't work, as it splits the url at every space (creating 2 playlist entries: "dvd://C:/...
