Re: Size of window out of control.

Well it is still doing the same problem. I open a video file and the screen (Not in full screen.) It opens in a large window, where a big portion of the window is off of the desktop, to the right and bottom of the desktop. I can not figure a way to get VLC to open in a small screen. I have to use th...

Size of window out of control.

Maybe I'm just some kind of dummy. But I can not figure out how to keep my player the same size each time I open a video. Most of the time the right and bottom of the player is off of the desktop and the player is taking up about 85% of the screen. Is there a work around where each time I open VL pl...

Watching TV shows.

I've been using VLC since 0.98 ... I'm just stating to play around with the media browser. I go to that one called channels.com and I can not get it to go to the channel or show that I want. It seems to want to show me what it wants me to watch. I live on a fixed income. So HULU was a blessing in di...

Re: VLC locks up at end of video.

Re: VLC locks up at end of video.

Ok, do those video have multiple audio tracks? It does not matter what format or if there is one file or many. Or if there is more than one audio track. Just like the other guy in this post VLC locks up and will not do anything. And I must use Task Manager to close it. I use Win XP SP3 and I am runn...

I fixed the problem by clicking on Start, then All Programs, then VideoLAN, then Quick Settings and finally Set Main Interface to Skinnable. And the skin that I have chosen to use. Now works just fine.

Re: VLC not reading .avi properly

I have some of the same problems. One video is all orange, the next is way too dark. I use the Extended GUI but have to mess with each video. Could the filters that I downloaded have become corrupt? I really don't know why the vids are not working right. I think a reinstall is needed.
