I cannot get any of the nightly builds for windows to work on my Vista machine. I have also tried them on Windows 2000 and have received the same error messages. 0.8.6a build runs fine on my Vista, but I am looking for some of the new features introduced in 0.9.x builds. I am curious to know whether...

Are you suggesting that I should apply a bug fix for an older version of the software on 0.9.0 software? If so, where can I find all the bug fixes? I search the site, but I was not able to find the bug fixes.

Sorry to post another one of these messages, but I have not yet received any answers as to what I am doing wrong. I have downloaded nightly builds for the past couple of days, but not of them seem to work for me. They cannot all be broken, but I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I have downloaded v...

I am having the same issue with the build of March 25th as well. I have tried this build on Windows 200 as well and it produced the same error. When I try to run a video clip from the command line using the following, the video does not get displayed: "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe"...

No. It does not work for me. Here is the log file. 0.8.6 works fine on the same laptop. I see warnings saying computer too slow! -- logger module started -- main debug: CPU has capabilities 486 586 MMX MMXEXT SSE SSE2 FPU main debug: looking for memcpy module: 3 candidates main debug: using memcpy m...

I have downloaded March 23rd latest build. When I use the command line to invoke the player, I get the following error message? Is it only me? Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

I downloaded the latest nightly build on 3/22/07. When I try to run it using the command line, I get the following error and nothing gets displayed. Is it really a build issue or am I doing something wrong? VLC media player 0.9.0-svn-20070323-0056 Grishenko [00000311] main interface: creating httpd ...

Here is the command I used: "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" -I http --no-video-deco --sub-filter=marq --marq-marquee="Some text" -vvv --extraintf logger -f Lexus400hCommercial.mpg It shows "Some Text" now, but it does not scroll! I could not spot any obvious war...

Thanks for all your replies. I tried insalling the windows nightly build. I get the following error when I have it installed: File reading failed: VLC could not open file "C:\Users\Dave\AppDate\Roaming\vlc\skins\default.vlc" (Result too large). Do I need to make any changes once the nightl...

Here is the command I use now based on your recommendation, but it still does not show the marquee. It shows the video clip though: "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" -I http --no-video-deco --sub-filter=marq --marq-marquee="Some text" -f Lexus400hCommercial.mpg Anything you...

Thanks for your reply. Here is the command I use now: "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" -I http --no-video-deco --sub-filter=rss --rss-urls="http://rss.news.yahoo.com/rss/topstories" --no-rss-images --rss-position=9 -f Lexus400hCommercial.mpg The RSS feed looks good except ...

I was just looking at what vlc supports and I noticed the RSS feed. Is it possible to have the marquee gets updated according to an RSS feed and its updates?

If so, where can I find the syntax for the command?

I want to run vlc from my Javaor C code. Is it possible to update the marquee using dynamic values that are set from my Java or C program and once set can be changed if Java or C program decides to change it?

Thanks for your reply. I tried to employ your suggestion, but it still does not work. Here is what I have: "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" -I http --no-video-deco --sub-filter=marq{marquee="Test",position=6} -f Lexus400hCommercial.mpg Is there something wrong with the abo...

The video clip not showing was a Windows Vista problem. Thanks to the posting on: http://computerbits.wordpress.com/2007/01/25/vlc-media-player-problem-under-vista/ It is solved now. I still cannot get the marquee to show up. Here is the command I am using: "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.ex...

I want to be able to display a video clip along with a string ticker at the bottom of the player. In other words, the top portion of the player is going to play the video clip and a small bottom portion of the player will display a string message that moves from right to left. I have been searching ...
