Hi davitof, In case it may help you, I used recently the last version of the well-known free program Avidemux (sourceforge) version 2.6.1 dated 2012-12-21, to quickly extract some sequences from a big mp4 file [x264-AC3], without reencoding. All went fine with the following parameters : Video Output...

Hi Techflaws, Maybe this old freeware program could help you. I use it constantly to quickly extract the language(s) I need from Vobsubs files (idx/sub) http://i48.tinypic.com/rri52t.jpg Select the idx file Check the language(s) you want to extract (Deutsch in the pic) Click Process A few seconds af...

I would like to confirm to this contribution because I, too, miss a function to stop the VLC player after each song automatically. It would be a great help since I want to make use of the player while performing a little cabaret program where jingles start after each scene. Sincerely Werner from Ge...

Hi all,
The same issue has been reported in another post :
viewtopic.php?f=14&t=103943#p351814

Maybe the file "test.divx" (226 Ko only) found in the other topic will help Vlc programmers.
Good luck guys.

Hi Pic889,

I confirm what you asked : here are 2 pics of your divx file, viewed with Vlc 1.1.11 and 2.0.3
On my old PC, subtitles are correct in 1.1.11 (1st pic) but horizontal lines appear above them in 2.0.3 (2nd pic)

Hi Dan, A very interesting post indeed, you explained well the issue and it's reproducible. A workaround could be this, for example with 6 different music folders : * Add them to a new playlist. * In the playlist, expand them manually, one by one. * Save the playlist to a file (Media >> Save Playlis...

Hi skeezix, Who knows, maybe some users need to get full control on the name of the recorded file (for some automatic batch processing etc...) For instance if you choose a filename like "E:\temp\vlc_recorded_file" then you sure will know in advance what the name of the recorded file will b...

Hi tskjaerpe, In case the playlist can't be disabled, here is a workaround that may help you to "ignore" all video clips in your current playlist, except the one you're currently viewing. Tools => Preferences => Interface (show settings : All) => Playlist => Play and stop (check) => Save =...

Hello johngrey,
You're right, the record folder is not in Video Tab.
Strangely, it's in the "Input & Codecs" Tab, as shown in the next pics :

...I don't see any reason to cut my own experiences towards others... I like this sentence very much :D Well let's share some experiences then lol I remember a time, a few years ago...I never heard of Vlc, playing all vids with WMP and Quicktime, and all audio files with Winamp. Then a friend of mi...

Glad it worked, I was fixing typos in my 1st answer while you already replied lol
Have a great Snapshot time

Hi Rooney, Just found a topic that may help you : http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=23991&start=20#p286228 Even if you won't get exactly the snapshot name you wish ("Friends S01E08.jpg") , you'll be able to include the file name as prefix, by using the $N meta variable ...

Bravo j-b :D As you suggested, modifying cache parameters made it (Tools => Preferences => Input & Codecs => Default caching policy => Higher latency => Save => Quit) Then the avi test file (1fps.avi) played "fluently" , 1 frame per each ticking second ! Notes : * This worked with both...

VLC low fps playback was always an issue. Hello, In case it may help, just tested on my computer the minimum fps working "fluently" with Vlc : => 2.5fps or higher is ok (tested with Vlc 2.0.3 and 1.1.11, same results) => 2.4fps or lower is erratic or totally static The tested files were 2...

many thanks j-b

Hi all, I just tested and confirm the regression (test with Vlc 2.0.3) Here are 4 split mkv files so j-b will be able to test. They've been created from a 20Mb mkv file (3min56) split in 4 parts with Hjsplit Each split file is nearly 1min long 1) Using Vlc 1.1.11 Drag mkv_split.001 in Vlc window and...

@Lotesdelere :
Thanks a lot for your answer and valuable replies in many posts.
Have a great day !

http://download.videolan.org/vlc/1.1.11/win32/ + http://download.videolan.org/vlc/1.1.13/win32/ As I'm still using Vlc 1.1.11 (with XP SP3) could you please tell me if it's not risky to overwrite the original libty_plugin.dll (1.1.11) with the one you indicated from version 1.1.13 ? Also, after rea...

C'est dommage cette histoire... Je viens de refaire le test , toujours en 1.1.11 bien sûr : avec l'explorateur Windows, je sélectionne 3 fichiers, par exemple 000.mpg, 001.mpg, 002.mpg (chacun faisant à peu près 1Go) puis clic droit => "Add to Vlc media player's playlist" Alors ca me lance...

Bonsoir JCG65, Tout comme vous, j'utilise beaucoup les fichiers 000.mpg 001.mpg ... INFO.DVR.... etc... enregistrés directement à partir de mon décodeur et je suis aussi sous Windows XP SP3 Mais comme je suis resté à la version 1.1.11 de Vlc alors tout marche bien avec cette version. Je n'ai jamais ...

At least you can try a following extension script:
VLC Extension: Previous frame

Thanks a lot Mederi
Your lua script works like a charm on my avi files (divx codec)

This VLC_help person never seems to know anything. You got a lot of nerve to write negative things like that. On the contrary, VLC_help knows a lot of things and is very patient. I just checked all your posts and usually, when he or j-b answered you in the past, you never thanked them in the end. N...

Salut geek-du-44 :D C'est parce que l'interface de VLC est très compliquée ! http://i42.tinypic.com/11b84t4.jpg Si tu veux plusieurs instances, il faut décocher "Une seule instance lorsque démarré depuis un fichier" Pour accéder à ce paramètre, il faut cocher "Tous" en bas à gauc...

Hi tckitty, Usually it works with this procedure : Tools => Preferences => Input & Codecs => Record Directory Indicate the Directory you want (E:\Temp in the following pic) http://i41.tinypic.com/2v14ykk.jpg Save your Preferences, Quit Vlc and you're done. Is it possible you didn't save your pre...

Hi Grae, The format I use is a standard .srt subtitle Here are 7 pics to explain clearly how it worked for me : Media => Open Folder Choosed Video_TS from the DVD disc in H: http://i43.tinypic.com/1zzqdm1.jpg Here is the DVD menu that appears, clicked on "Start the journey" (to play all ch...
