The VideoLAN Forums

These files have three ID3 tags, ID3v1, ID3v2.3 and ID3v2.4.
It seems that VLC can handle only one ID3 tag in MP3-file.

I ran VLC with debug output, here it is -- logger module started -- main debug: CPU has capabilities 486 586 MMX 3DNow! MMXEXT SSE FPU main debug: looking for memcpy module: 4 candidates main debug: using memcpy module "memcpymmxext" main debug: waiting for thread completion main debug: th...

Advanced use of VLC

There is nothing about "Dir:" , neither here
http://wiki.videolan.org/index.php/VLC_ ... -line_help

Also i did find nothing about it at help file.
I just tested few possibilities ("d:", "directory:", "dir:) and last one was the right one. Documentary is not very good, i hope that VLC would show command line parameters for operations at GUI.

No, these are 128Kbps.
Please check file "05-Mr. Zebra.mp3", i uploaded it to ftp://streams.videolan.org/incoming/

It seems that VLC cant handle all TAGs in MP3 file

Im using this to play directories:
"vlc.exe dir:dirname"

In your case it should be
"vlc.exe -Z --loop dir:c:\vids\"

I have WinXP SP2 and VLC v0.8.6b
Other players (WMP, MPC) can play these files, but VLC not.
I upload one of these files (05-Mr. Zebra.mp3 1.3MB) to
ftp://streams.videolan.org/incoming/
Whats the problem?
