As said, this differs from dvd-drive to dvd-drive. On my old G4, VLC could play any region discs. On my Macmini 1.83 VLC could not bypass the hardware protection of the drive and would only play the region set by DVD-player (limited number of changes until the dvd-drive got permanently locked to las...

If you mean not reported to the trac, it may very well be that it is very confusing for a non developer, just resulting in a BIG ??? for a normal user.

This bug has been with us (and reported) since 1.0. The 170Hz slider worked as expected up to at least 0.9.9a. (Just tested it) 1.If you lower the 170Hz slider you should get less audio, -but you get more. -This half of the slider is inverted. 2.If you raise it to max (from center) nothing happens. ...

170Hz, is still broken in 1.03. It boosts when turned down and does nothing when turned up.
What to do?

It has been like that since 1.0 ...
(at least on OS X)

OK. I'll take that as a no. To hire a developer to rewrite VLC, will be much harder than having someone tweak Mplayer for track playing capabillity (Mplayer can already do what I want, but only via terminal commands). I think I will have to start in that end, since interest over here is so low. I mu...

What I mean is there a way to influence the priority?

Funny guy. There are reasons why I prefer OSX on my home entertainment system. At the moment I am mainly using Mplayer OSX extended, for playing movies and it works with 95% of the DVDs I try to play with it and with some fiddling even more. Maybe I should just forget VLC? Really, -What is the probl...

Just downloaded vlc 1.0.0 rc2 OSX. Still no x0.96% slow down. I found a function (faster fine /slower fine) among the quick key settings. But it only works at +-0,1 steps which are way to much (x0,9 is way too slow). Sigh. This is an important fuction for us watching movies transferred to PAL-video....

In OSX???
I just installed Leopard and the latest VLC1.0git to give it a try. But no, the slowmotionsteps are much larger than 5%!
Or what keys are you talking about?

Any way of setting x0,96 through the terminal or other way as of today?

There is no SMplayer OSX, or is there? The VLC 1.0 windows and Linux test-versions (not fully finished) has x0.96 slow-motion. Do check that "Enable time stretching audio" is not ticked in (advanced): http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=55755&hilit=vlc+1.0+pal I am hopin...

Me even more This is one of the best improvement for years! No more PAL-movies with "nuts in a vice"-sounding actors and singers!

I just found it. "Enable time stretching audio" was ticked in audio preferances. Seems to work, after having restarted VLC.
Thanks. -What a releif!

The new x0.96 slow motion was disappointment. I was hoping to finally being able to play my PAL DVDs at the right pitch. But instead of slowing down with the pitch following it now does a terrible choppy timestretch. Sigh. Please say it is a bug or that there is a way to slow down without timestretc...

To be able to play back at x0,96 speed (in any way) would be a huge improvement for all of us watching PAL DVDs.
Please, please, please!

Well, just use the vlc at 0.96x speed.

HOW DO I GET x0,96 SPEED??

Right clicking on the speed label does not give me the x0,96 speed. Closest choice is x0,94, which is too slow.
Is there a way to really get x0.96 speed???

Hi! After hours of tearing my hair. I finally visited this forum and got the VLC with Quickime 7.1.5 problem confirmed. Sigh. Then I searched around and found a way to downgrade to QT 7.1.3 and now VLC works again! Obviously not only VLC is suffering from the QT 7.1.5 so called "upgrade".....
