Re: cropadd filter makes green bars

The x265 green-bars bug in combination with CropAdd has existed for more than five years. A programmer myself, my guess is, as both the codec and the CropAdd filter work well, that there is probably only a minimal correction in the VLC code required. Steps to reproduce the error: 1. Tools, Preferenc...

Support! Support! Support!

To give support for the cause, I've prepared comparison pictures and a possible way how VLC could treat subtitles in future releases: http://thumbnails19.imagebam.com/4675/afbf3546745039.gif Pic. 1: VLC as it is now - the subtitle text covers a considerable part of beautiful Zooey's scene, especiall...

Frame-by-frame feature needs hardening (v1.0.1)

Dear developers, the frame-by-frame feature works well - if you use it *tenderly* and *carefully*! At the hands of callous guys like me, it needs a little bit more resilience. A crash of VLC can be reproduced as follows (tested it with WMV, XVID, H.264/MKV): 1. Pause at the desired position in your ...

Hotkey collision in German localization

Another hotkey problem that should be solved quite easily: In the American English version, the hotkey for the menu item "View, Minimal View" is "Ctrl+H". In the German version, the respective menu item "Ansicht, Minimale Ansicht" is wrongly set to "H". This c...

Feedback on AVC1 performance in v1.0.0

Hello guys, first of all congratulations to the official 1.0 release. On behalf of many users I say thank you very much for the efforts you've given to make this happen. As I had the opportunity to test the new version, I must regretfully say that the AVC1 codec is as weak as in v1.0.0-rc1 and about...

Re: AVC1 codec in v1.0.0-rc1 requires too much CPU

Dear developers, in order to return from the interlude with the already known startup subtitle bug back to the thread's issue, and to conclude my contribution: Were you able to confirm the weaker avc1 codec performance in v1.0.0-rc1 compared to v.0.9.8a? If yes, this is definitely a non-priority to-...

Re: AVC1 codec in v1.0.0-rc1 requires too much CPU

I don't know whether it's legal to say: it's one of the TV series season finals that we can't see in Europe yet, like LOST or BONES.

The described phenomenon happens with all of the 1280x720 mkv/avc1 files - the consumption of CPU time in v1.1.0-rc1 appears to be 20% to 50% bigger than in v0.9.8a.

Re: AVC1 codec in v1.0.0-rc1 requires too much CPU

I've made message screenshots of both VLC versions in question. Hopefully there's something "conspicuous"? Otherwise it just may be that the binary code of the codec is more elaborate to handle more things, thus more CPU-consuming? http://img12.imagevenue.com/loc934/th_58482_Messages_v.0.9...

AVC1 codec in v1.0.0-rc1 requires too much CPU

Dear developers, first of all let me express my thankfulness for the fantastic job you've done with the v1.0.0-rc1 release. I'm still testing it, but as far as I've come, a lot of things look quite accomplished. So, here is a small performance issue: Background info on my system: Win2000 SP4, Athlon...

Re: Issues with current Release on Windows

Navigation Problems in WMV files (VLC = 0.9.8a, OS = Win2000) First of all: damned fine work you've already achieved, developers! Best player out there. Well, the problems don't occur with AVI (e.g. XVID) files. There, everything is fine. With a WMV file (video = WMV3, audio = WMA2), I experience th...
