As far as I know, Dazzle DVC 100 uses YUY2 chroma, not I420.

You can use the Clone video output filter to duplicate the video, creating separate windows for each clone. You can set this in the Preferences (if you know how/can find out) or by using the "Effects and Filters" window (Ctrl-E). I have not found a way to automatically display the clones o...

Your best bet is to use DirectX video output module, which has options for forcing the video output to a specific monitor.

You need to use the 'fake:' schema in order to use the fake video decoder: "C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" --run-time=20 --fake-duration=20000.00 "fake://C:/Wall Street2_1360x768.jpg" Note: you can omit either the run-time option or the fake-duration option, as they both ...

Where is the GPU acceleration option?

What audio codecs do your FLVs use? Could you paste the full debug output from VLC?

I use v0.8.6 and i have the same problem.

FLVs usually have mp3 audio. Newer ones can have AAC as well.

You cannot use H264 video codec with VOD, only MPEG 1/2/4.

You can only use/transcode to MPEG 1/2/4 Video formats with VOD.

VLC uses the Live555 media server core, which only supports MPEG 1/2/4 video formats, not h264.

OK as I see no one has tried or ever found the same error, true ?
Is it a problem with the vlc version - vlc + Fedora5 ?
Any feedback on the matter is welcomed,
Cheers,

i have the same problem, and im trying to find a solution as well.

the "-I telnet" switch means you must use telnet to control vlc. if you want to use telnet as an alternate interface (with another main interface) you must use the "--extraintf" switch instead of "-I".
