The VideoLAN Forums

for the love of god, is every problem i have with vlc the subject of a single post thread? these forums are useless.

i get a little closer when i run: cvlc -vvv rtsp://server.domain.com/filename.ra --sout '#transcode{acodec=mpga}:standard{access=file,mux=ogg,dst=/home/user/filename.ogg}' in that my filename.ogg gets created and actually has data in it [filesize is > 0] but when i try to play it, vlc says its lengt...

i am having a little trouble wrapping my head around the cli arguments for transcoding. i'm trying to take an rtsp .ra stream and transcode it to either mp3 or ogg for later playback. doing cvlc -vvv rtsp://server.domain.com/filename.ra plays the file in question. my difficulties seem to be with the...

i know this is an old thread, but it seems to me that enhanced podcasts still do not work. over the years i've tried on numerous operating systems, and always the audio plays, but video never. i might as well be playing a normal mp3. it hasn't been a big problem, as i listen to basically one enchanc...

sorry, i had forgot about the log snip in the initial post. thanks much for your help.

sorry. i have no idea what you are talking about. what is mbaff, and how do you know the video i am trying to play is mbaff from the information i have provided you? same goes for spacial direct mode . . .

had some time to play with it tonight. latest nightly has the same problem. have been rummaging the forums, and i see lots of threads on vc-1 and h264, but no resolution on any of them. the only suggestion [that doesn't work] is to check 'skip loop filter' on the x264 video codec. am i missing somet...

thanks. good to know that it is a known issue. i am afraid that i can't really do nightlies at the moment. maybe when i have a little more free time to play with any other issues that might come up.

i have a ts file that vlc is trying to play, but instead i get nothing. only a huge log of errors: ffmpeg warning: MBAFF + spatial direct mode is not implemented (h264@00B1F840) main warning: late picture skipped (9571898) ffmpeg warning: MBAFF + spatial direct mode is not implemented (h264@00B1F840...

ah yes, the land of the single post threads. [bump]

installed a new bsd box, that i am slowly setting up as a media laptop. hardware is an ibm thinkpad t42. installed latest vlc from ports 0.8.6e and having a little problem: no matter what the input: local file, samba share, nfs share, [100mb lan] or internet stream, i get stutters in the tunes at ra...

i'm having the same problem. found another thread that said to try two things: 1. in prefs, up the priority * under advanced, check 'increase the priority of the process' 2. in prefs, disable preparsing * under playlist, uncheck 'automatically preparse files' just wanted to help out, since this foru...

looks pretty good, but these days if i'm going to support a software project it has to be cross platform, not just windows only or *nix only. hence my hopes that i could get vlc working . . .

well i think its time to call it quits. i have three versions of vlc, one on xp, one on ubuntu, and one on portableapps. i can't get them to play streams for any length of time, and apparently no one can help me. there are a few other threads out there and just like mine, they were completely ignore...

unfortunately i already tried that. even if that option is selected, after some time it will simply stop playing. hitting stop then generates some log output: access_http debug: got disconnected, trying to reconnect main debug: net: connecting to scfire-nyk-aa01.stream.aol.com port 80 main debug: co...

i have also just been through the entire downloaded playlist, and verified that i can establish a connection to each server.

that being said, it took three tries before i could get through the entire list before it crashed . . .

some output from the messages console. it played until about halfway through the u2 track and then vlc just sat there. i waited 5 mins before hitting stop, which is when the additional stuff was logged. if i then hit play again, it connects again, and again after a few minutes it simply stops playin...

regretfully, i'm in the same boat. i want to use vlc, especially since its totally cross platform, and a portableapp to boot. that being said, on winxp, ubuntu, and as a portable app, i just can't seem to get it to work. i'm unable to stream internet radio to it, as between 3 an 30 minutes it will j...

having a somewhat odd issue in three different versions of vlc player. am not seeing anything about it when i search the wiki or the forums: when i play an internet radio station, such as http://www.radioparadise.com/musiclinks/rp_128-1.m3u it will play for anywhere from 3 - 30 minutes, and then poo...
