@Oliver clumsy workaround: keep vlc 2.1.5 x64, then install vlc 2.1.5 x32 in a different location, use the x32 version to set your associations, use the x64 version for everything else

Same issue, luckily my files were already associated, but I had uninstall/reinstall VLC after a Windows update corrupted my graphics driver. Now if I click set up associations, I get the runtime error termination

Using the MPEG4 (AAC) audio encoder for file conversion, regardless of video encoder or encapsulation results in 2 things:
1) Pop Up error log - <red text> Streaming/Transcoding failed: <black text> VLC could not open the encoder
2) Resulting file has video, no audio

I'm noticing that because the new interface forces the file extension on the convert/save, there is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY to convert to a proper audio format. All of the audio converters are encapsulated as RAW except mp3 (mp4) which forces .mp4 This worked fine in 2.0.8 since you could manually type in...

I had a problem with the files I converted to mp4 when trying to play them in Windows Media Player. Now I know people will be yelling "Why are you using WMP when you have VLC!!!?". The answer is, I am often asked to make copies of church sermon videos and presentations for congregation mem...

Just tried to Update to 2.1.3 again (from vlc help menu), converter seems to work now (4 successful tests so far) it even shows the right container/extension when saving the file type instead of locking it into *.RAW. I'm confused as to why it's working now when it didn't a few months ago... aside f...

2.1.3 same problem, can only convert to *.raw regardless of input type entered or output type chosen.... reloading 2.0.8 again

News flash 2.1.2 is even worse... it keeps trying to save everything as .raw (which cannot be changed) and simply crashes as soon as you try to start the process, going back to 2.0.8... again

reinstalled 2.1.1 to make log file deleted pref/cache "vlc" folder from appdata\roaming first attempt .mp4 to .asf crashed second attempt .flv to .mp4 "missing video" problem occurred, DOS prompt window gave the following on second attempt: [03d44f24] logger interface: using logg...

Correction, after 2 successful conversions of different file types the problem resurfaced in 2.1.1 did full uninstall/reinstall (including delete cache/pref) problem persists switching back to 2.0.8 since it works

seems that the problem doesn't exist in 2.1.1

Same for Reinstalling 2.0.8 the conversion problem doesn't happen there either

On a whim I decided to check the video settings to see if the video track was disabled but the entire video menu was grayed out. The originals of the files I'm trying to convert play correctly in VLC 2.1.0 as do all other video files including those that were converted using 2.0.8

I reinstalled 2.1.0 set the message verbosity to 2 (debug) but when it crashed all it did was tell me it had crashed and would I like to send a report. If any log was created where would I see it?

Using version 2.0.5 to 2.0.8 I could successfully convert a video file from one type to another... the file save menu would show all available extension types even after I selected a specific file conversion. However after installing version 2.1 when trying to convert files, regardless of which conv...

After Watching an mpeg this time it began to refuse playing MKVs, I ran the registry cleaner again and this time it failed to get mkvs working... I'm totally confused

I ran RegCure registry cleaner... It works again... go figure...

I've been running MKV files with VLC with no problems for weeks now, today I opened and watched an MKV, I closed it near the end of the file (closing credits) as normal, I activated mIRC and worked with that application for a few minutes beginning an avi file download, I switched windows to open the...
