thanks for your answer, i will try this.
i think setting a deinterlace-method as default should at least be an advanced-option.

ah, ok. i thought you were talking to me.

i think it would be helpful to know, what exactly happens during the building of the fontcache. which folders are read out, which folders are written to? are there any other tings that happen, perhaps reading or writing in the registry?

If VLC is crashing/hanging while rebuilding the font cache, I'd wager you have some corrupt fonts installed on your system. You should try and determine what those are and remove them. There are a few tools that can assist, but I have no experience with them, so Google would be the next step. the s...

Hello, I often use VLC to watch DVDs, and most of the time the picture is interlaced, so i activate the deinterlace function (right click on the screen, Video --> deinterlace --> automatic). Is there a way to set this on default, so I don't have to activate it everytime i restart VLC? Thanks in adva...

Here are some details, perhaps this will help you trouble shooting: I am running W...

Yes, I agree, that's no solution, just a workaround. But even when I install VLC 1.1.2 again (that's the version that previously worked with the subtitles), the player want's to build up a frontcache at start of the fist movie and crashes the whole system. I have even tried VLC 1.1.0, but the same h...

I had the same problems with the new 1.1.3 Version of VLC Player. I installed VLC on my 1 week old Win 7 64 Bit system, and it opens the fontcache dialog right when i want to play the first videofile, even if it has no subtitles. i can see the fontcache progressbar, but nothing happens. then the who...
