Hi, I've been running 1.1.0 under Windows XP64 for quite a while without prpblems. Today I upgraded to 1.1.3 and it fails with some abnormal termination error as soon at load time. I reverted to 1.1.2 and it runs OK. Unfortunately I did not record the error before I downgraded. Has anybody had probl...

my guess is CastUP made the change. when i contacted them they kept insisting I use windows media player because they "don't support other players". i explained that it's only a matter of ensuring the name is ASX rather than ASP, but they would not listen. perhaps if somebody behind VLC wo...

Is there anything I can do to save the file as ASX? And again, why was VLC opening it before I upgraded to 1.0.3 and it doesn't after I did? Since the browser is the same there are only 2 possibilities: the CastUP streaming service and the new VLC version. The former is telling me that "VLC doe...

you're probably right, but the same browser was starting the play before and now it does not. if VLC has not changed, what has?

Thanks.

I don't understand why the name of the file downloaded is .ASP when the file is really an .ASX file which can be open by VLC automatically opens. Did it use to be ASX and it was changed to ASP? Can it be fixed so it is ASX?

what was the previous version of VLC and is it available? I would like to try it and see if it still works.

My impression is that it did not.
It was OK before I upgraded and it stopped working after I upgraded.
So it looks like it has something to do with the upgrade.

well, it turns out that the file is downloaded as ASP but in reality is ASX. so when I rename it to ASX VLC opens it and plays the stream.

the thing is that before I updated VLC it was doing it automatically, but now I have to manually rename it and then open it with VLC.

any idea what's different?

OK, I reinstalled VLC without Mozilla plugin.

now when I click on the link to play the video in Netscape it downloads a file called gm.asp. the previous version would open the file and stream the video. now it does not.

i would not mind if it opened inside Netscape, but it does not work: it opens a black screen and says "waiting for the video" and nothing happens.

i should add that:

ASF files are set to be opened by vLC and I checked Mozilla plugin when installing VLC

I am running Netscape 9 under Windows XP64. I have been using VideoLan to watch the news video at: http://www.iba.org.il/media/ With the previous version of VLC, when I was clicking on the news video I would get a prompt to click on it to view the content directly in my Windows Media player. That wo...

The codecs fields are all blank.

I am running Windows 2000 and have configured AVI files to open automatically with VLC. Most AVIs play fine, but one bunch won't. When I double click on the AVI, the VLC window opens minimized, but the video does not. The progress indicator moves fast to the end and neither video nor audio plays. Th...
