Wasn't it "wcscat_s" instead ? It's a very recent addition in 3.0.21.

Re: nVidia VSR video freeze on resize

I can reproduce the issue on a RTX 3070 and 546 Studio drivers. Going fullscreen (double click on the video) it works fine. But resizing manually gives this issue: NVWGF2UM: Failed to run Algo 2 of Stream 1. D3D11: Removing Device. direct3d11 vout display error: SwapChain Present failed. (hr=0x887A0...

Re: VLC 3.0.19 cannot open av01/aac/mp4 video which can in nightly20230107 or older

Thanks for the report. For some reason libavcodec cannot handle this file and it crashes during probing. A fix is coming. It works fine when switching to dav1d.

Re: 3.0.19 Vetinari crashes on open

What OS are you using ? Does it crash with D3D11 ? Can you provide logs when disabling hardware decoding with D3D11 ?

Re: 4 streams 4k simultaneously

One issue that 3 4K HEVC streams might be using too much memory from the GPU. In 4.0 we use less memory for hardware decoding. In 3.0 you might reduce that amount by using a single decoding thread (instead of 3 you seem to set).

Re: 4K Smooth for 10 secs then CRASH!

Can you try with the open GL or Direct3D9 outputs ? I assume you're using the Direct3d11 one.

Re: VLC 3.0.8 x265 Simply Will Not Play

Your GPU cannot decode 10 bits HEVC, so it's decoded in software. But in software your computer is too slow to decode so playback is not smooth and many frames are dropped.

Re: Cannot play Insta Pro video samples

It says 6 GB, not 16 (which would be a lot on a laptop or even in general). I think it's a memory size issue. In 4.0 we will less memory to do the same decoding. But huge files like this will always have problems on some config.

Hi, I looked at the files. The source file is marked as BT.470 for the Transfer Function and the Matrix Coefficients (according to MediaInfo). In the destination file the values are BT.709 for the Transfer Function and BT.601 for the Matrix Coefficients. You are using Direct3D11 so the colours are a...

Re: Using libVLC ignores disabled hardware acceleration

I don't understand the same app but it is possible to enable/disable `avcodec-hw` through libvlc. There are cases where it's not going to work though. For example if you use `libvlc_video_set_callbacks()` or `libvlc_media_player_set_hwnd()`. When you create your media to play, you can add options, f...

Re: H.265 / HEVC black screen (1080p video), only audio is playing - VLC 3.0.4 - 3.0.5 - 4.0.0

The log still doesn't say the WDDM driver version. I'll add some logs to find out what is failing there. If you are on Windows 10 you can see the WDDM drivers in the Task Manager when you click on your GPU in the Performance tab. It should be something like Driver Version: 25.10.14011.123 . Otherwis...

What is the WDDM driver version ? It's supposed to show up in the logs but it doesn't.

If the revision build is older than 14011 it won't work (and we don't blacklist your GPU yet). Can you also provide logs from 4.0 nightlies ? The WDDM version detected should show up there.

Re: VLC Freezing and skipping when playing DVD, when other players are not freezing

It's the deinterlacing that is taking too long just before displaying. It's both a design issue in VLC that is doing it too close to the display time, but also your GPU is quite slow to do it.
