Misspelling?

Androids changed ways / restrictions to access extrenal SD cards?
(Several times changed since Android 4.3.)
-> Try to choose a folder at internal storage.

Do you know about SMBv1 and SMBv2?

VLC 2.1.11 (Fire TV stick 2) and VLC 2.0.6 (Android 6.0.1, Samsung) Is it possible to "Add custom folder" ("Preferences", 'Directory' respectively 'Media library folder') with shared folders like "smb://NAS1/Music" instead of local folders of the devices? So I can choos...

-turn off password protected sharing on windows -refresh network tab on VLC for android (restart application shows same behavior) -> folders that does not have ''everyone'' permission on sharing dissapears Seems to be correct!? Either password protected or not!? But not both at the same time? If I ...

I would know it, too!

Look at iOS: how to delete Local Network > saved server logins
(...no swiping at Android.)

Look at this topic: Fire TV: can't enter authentication for SMB share in "VLC for Anbdroid and Chrome OS" forum.

Seems to be solved.

If not: Try to use "amazon Fire TV" app for remotely enter credentials.

I had to use lexicons work-around on a Fire TV stick 2 yesterday sometimes, too. (Installed VLC 2.0.6 from Amazon's App store at July, 01.)

What is the meaning of "data point"? (I don't own an iOS device.)

More important (to me):
How to delete credentials in Android based VLC?


Thanks!

Perhaps you have to type the full user name: domain\username password e.g. MYDOM\user1 mypasswd or WORKGROUP\user1 mypasswd Additionally: On windows systems (acting as server for your VLC using devices) with disabled password protection you have to add user "EVERYONE" to permissions of the...

iTunes syncing prevention of transcoded H.264 files seems to be a muxing issue with VLC (0.8.6i)! With MP4Box I'm more successful! (But I want to do the whole job in VLC, of course.) See this: link to Doom9 thread (And the next step is to find properly working H.264 options, I suppose.) mpeg-lover

Hi Jean-Baptiste!

1.0 is unstable, of course

You are a funny guy!! You are joking!

Of course! (But I've to check current nightlies before posting bugs, haven't I?)

Additionally I'm joking, too: 0.9.x is unstable, too!


Cheers (thanks for registering),

trac.videolan.org/vlc Create a new login, tell me the name of it so I can validate it and click on new bug. Thanks! (Meanwhile I'd found/read bug tracking pages.) I'd registered at Trac, now. Same user name: mpeg-lover. OMG, what an exertion for all this bugs and versions... Meanwhile I've tested s...

Hi j-b! Please fill a bug on each issue. OMG! After days of investigation and bug searching my mental energy (for VLC and x264) is down... Can you tell me shortly how to find/operate bug tracking system and how to search for already entered bugs? (You'll recognize: I'm barely able to invest hours of...

Hey Guys! Preventing of syncing H.264 videos to iPod via special atoms seems to be an Apple nuisance in era of iPod 5.5G and some kind of iTunes 7. So patronizing ended in about the middle of 2007 or late 2006. Already with newer versions of iTunes 7 this restriction was removed, users said. (But pe...

2) v0.9.x do not allow to run a DVD under the dvdsimple mode. This has been reported by me earlier; other forum members experience similar issues

"Only" with 0.9.8a dvdsimple:// crashes, I suppose. With 0.9.6 dvdsimple:// is running (just tested by chance, 2 hours ago).

After all I get a mp4v and mp4a DVD rip/transcode with VLC 0.8.6i /dvdsimple working on an iPod touch 2G (FW 2.2), even in 640x480! This are my working commandline commands: VLC 0.8.6i: (Third audio track "2" is 2-ch German; even with downmixing of 5.1-ch track "1" it's running [...

Hi VLC_help! But by the way: both working commands results in files which have stuttering audio in QT7 (in VLC 0.9.8a audio is ok)! Yep. You are right. Audio doesn't work correctly in QT7. But it works correctly in Media Player Classic and also in AVIdemux, so it might QT issue. There should be newe...

Hi VLC_help! ATOMs are MP4 container related stuff. Not video codec. Thanks for this info. Meanwhile I'd discovered this fact at other sources, too. So with 0.8.6 the MP4 muxer might not produce files which are 100% iPod compatible. But the 0.9.8a might do this? (Unfortunately no H.264.) I'm not abl...

Hi VLC_help! I only used mpeg-4 video for iPod encoding. In small screen quality differences don't show up anyhow and encoding is much faster. Maybe one way to crate iPod videos... My VLC mp4v examples were even synchronisable via iTunes to iPod touch without further iTunes transcoding. But the iPod...

No success with transcoding für iPod (touch) with VLC 0.8.6i! (Unfortunately H.264 is broken in 0.9.8a, like VLC_help mentioned - so I've to choose 0.8.6i.) Can anyone tell me working x264 options for creating iPod videos (from DVDs)? By the way: is ffmpeg H.264 encoding not implemeted in 0.8.x? (So...

Hey shaunl! You're using Windows, right? Start Task Manager and look at Performance / CPU. If you're at 100% your system isn't powerful enough. (Something could be compensated by a video fitting graphics card with fast coupling to the mainboard. Cheap onboard, slow PCI, and AGP 1x "solutions&qu...

Hi VLC_help! Use tool called Mediainfo to identify file differences, it gives more info. At least VLC 1.0.0 can create iPod compatible files. Thank you for this hint. VLC 0.8.6i (because you'd written 0.9.x-H.264-encoding is broken at all): Because of some differencies I'd changed my command to venc...

Hi VLC_help! I tested with VLC 1.0.0 ;-) (We could be happy someone is working on this bugs.) I think the channel should be working correctly if you use channels=2. And it shouldn't crash even if it would be wrong. :audio-language=de together with channels=2 crashes. :audio-language=de together with...

If I'm transcoding with dvdsimple:// instead of dvd:// there is only one audio entry in QuickTime Inspector like expected / like wanted, but this VLC transcoded file have to be transcoded additionally by iTunes, too: VLC 0.8.6i: C:\Programme\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe "dvdsimple://D:\@1" :audio-...

Hi Folks! I'm trying to convert some movie DVD titles to iPod. Meanwhile I've first usable results but a second transcode step is alredy necessary. VLC 0.8.6i / MP4V / AAC (2-ch downmix): C:\Programme\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe "dvd://D:\@1" :audio-language=de :sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,vb=700...
