although I have to say that there are issues at times with .mp4 files. .mkv files 99% of the time play flawlessly, can't say the same though for .mp4 files.

umm... I think I will sleep on this a bit. I did two changes by which I was again able to get audio working flawlessly again. a. Update pulseaudio to pulseaudio 6.0 - in experimental b. Update the whole shebang of libav and its brothers and sisters to the ones in experimental - 6:11.3-1 After doing ...

@Jean-Baptise Kempf but first can you share how can I make a small clipping from the media file ? Maybe a link to where this is told/shared ?

@Jean-Baptiste Kempf, the file in question is 2.3 GiB. I would need to know how to cut the file in a smaller peice or chunk maybe of 10-15 MB and then get an email-address where I could send you the file.

Hi all, I have been getting no audio with vlc while with mpv the same media file plays fine. [$] mpv abc.mp4 --start=02:44:00 --fs [18:20:09] Playing: abc..mp4 [libav/demuxer] srt: Estimating duration from bitrate, this may be inaccurate (+) Video --vid=1 (*) (h264) (+) Audio --aid=1 --alang=eng (*)...

Hi there, I have an intel integrated sound and video chipset . pacmd telling/sharing what audio sink is available and used. [$] pacmd list-sinks|egrep -i 'index:|name:' * index: 0 name: <alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo> lspci tells this :- [$] lspci | grep Audio 00:1b.0 Audio device: Inte...

Just did, please see https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/14157#ticket . I have no idea which component to file it under, would it come under QT or something else so left it out, have put it as 2.2.1 but changing any of those values is upto you, I am just a reporter

@Jean-Baptiste Kempf thank you. Is there a wishlist bug/ticket to get it to start at minutes things instead of calculating at seconds? Something that can be followed ?

If not, do you think it would be a good idea (and accepted) such a wishlist feature ?

Hi all, How do I get vlc to start at a specific time in a media file. I can do it easily in mplayer2, mpv but not vlc. Let's say the media file is named abc.avi (file format,container not important for this example.) Also the running time is around 2+ hrs. In mplayer2 and mpv I can simply do :- $mpv...

Hi all, I am getting the following error when I try to play a file which has .sub for subtitles. This happens both in MS-Windows as well as in Debian GNU/Linux. One thing might be that the .sub file itself might be corrupted, the other might be that I do not have proper software for seeing the .sub ...

Hi there, Today vlc said it has an update. So updated it. While video quality is better than before not being able to use extended settings is not nice. The only way I can use extended settings now is if I invoke it before the movie. IF I do so then the extended settings window comes and I can manip...

Hi all,
Just as a reference for self and others. VLC has a nightlies corner. http://nightlies.videolan.org/

It seems it has been fixed as far as the bug is concerned, but when we will get the fix packaged as a release is anybody's guess.

Hi Remi,
Does this mean that we would never have a release which would work with embedded, atleast in the short-run?

I have seen the skin2 module but need to know :- 1. If there are other other skins 2. If there is a way to download it from within the app. or it provides some link 3. A way so if I find a skin I like I can use it permanently and change only when its required. One thing though I would have to say, t...

sorry meant 7:46: and some seconds as shown in the picture. I don't think I can fix this

VLC 0.9.0 has not been released yet so there is no "b" version. VLC 0.8.6b is the latest released version. Try pressing the "i" key while playing the video in full screen. If you are using the embedded wxWidgets interface it will be very ugly and take up most of the screen, but ...

DJ, I never said that the picture doesn't play fine. What I said were two things:- 1. See the counter that being displayed it shows 28 minutes passed out of 7:46 minute file which the file itself is just 46 minutes. I played this file in three other players & there the counter is good. 2. I have...

Hi all, First of all I tried to take a snapshot with the inbuilt picture-taker which didn't work. Then I tried to take it through the windows print screen button which showed the following pic. http://img501.imageshack.us/img501/7889/snapshotvlcvg1.png Now this is in version 0.9b The same file can b...

Hi all, Noob here. I searched before i came here. I saw this thread http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?t=5875 and this was in 2k4. Now its 2k7. I don't know if its implemented or not, or if its implemented then how to invoke it, for I would like to have playback controls while in full screen. C...
