Hello, I think I came across a charset bug in VLC for iOS. As explained on https://wiki.videolan.org/Report_bugs/ , I'm posting here before adding this to the tracker, in case anyone wants to confirm it first. I found that when accessing a SMB share, any files containing an emoji is simply not shown...
If it is not a problem with the graphics card, I think it is overheating. I really doubt that, in my case it's a Radeon Pro 580 with 8 GB of VRAM and it would be quite sad if opening a 640x480 video made it overheat... :) I have a dual screen too. Cinema Display 23", like the 2003 model IIRC. ...
I have the same issue on a 2017 iMac 5K, but only when I have an additional screen connected (using a USB-C to HDMI adapter). Disconnecting the second screen appears to 'fix' the issue for me. I wonder if it's because the external screen is not retina, unlike the built-in one. On top of that, VLC 3 ...
Hello all, this is a very odd issue but I hope someone with a similar configuration can reproduce it. My machine is an iMac 5K 27" (2017), with 24 GB of RAM and a Radeon Pro 580 with 8 GB of VRAM. I also have an external screen connected via a USB C-HDMI adapter. The second screen's settings ca...
strat, please add your report to https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/1489 ... perhaps some coder will consider it a little more (even though VLC is free so we can't expect any timeframe). As for the web interface launching VLC, all it does it making it open /video.m3u; in theory, VLC should open an...
Indeed, an IPbox developer confirmed to me that the stream sent out by Enigma is not always standard-compliant. However, the PMT information is apparently not strictly needed for the stream to be decoded (see MPlayer), therefore VLC could just go ahead anyway too. In any case, the PMT is given as th...
A developer(?), cmassiot, just changed the status of the bug report to "Bugs paradize". Apparently, that tag applies to "Any bugs that have no definite deadline release." Sources: https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/1489#comment:1 https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/milestone/Bugs%20p...
Okay, it seems like the problem is more common than I thought. I recently got ahold of a Dreambox DM500 (original, not a clone) to use in another room, and I loaded Gemini 4.30 on it. The VLC access is unpredictable from that too and I haven't noticed any pattern. The fact that this happens with all...
I'm glad to know I'm not the only one with this issue. I have been using MPlayer too, albeit with a less comfortable way: an applescript downloads video.m3u and copies its contents to the clipboard, so I can paste the URL into MPlayer OS X. This is because mplayer doens't allow selection of audio tr...
Using wget, I downloaded some piece of a stream that VLC didn't open. It doesn't open the dumped stream either, while mplayerosx (and mpegstreamclip) seem to be opening it -- the problem with mplayer is that it's VERY sluggish, so it's not an option. If you open this in VLC and keep an eye on the me...
Hello all, I'm posting in this "OS independent" section of the forum because I found that the problem I had and that I have described on http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=42549 seems to happen on Windows too. I have a linux-based satellite receiver called IPBox. It's very ...
Hello there, I got an IPBox satellite linux receiver today and I've been playing with the streaming capabilities of it. It can send MPEG-TS streams through the network and VLC seems to be the player of choice, except... it doesn't work. Accessing the stream URL causes data to be transferred (it can ...
