PS: I have found the (provisional) answer: it is a bug in v. 2.1.2. The DVDs play perfectly welli n VLC 2.1.1.

My apologies if ths topic is covered in one of the dozens of similar posts, but I have not found one that applies exactly to my set-up. I have VLC 2.1.2 on a Mac mini (which has no internal optical drive) and play DVDs on a LaCie external drive. Commercial DVDs play correctly in the Apple DVD player...

I recently posted the following in a new stream, not having spotted this request for bug reports, so here it is again: * Edit post * Report this post * Reply with quote VLC cannot open encoders Postby Michael Graubart on Sat Nov 14, 2009 9:48 pm Computer: Mac G4 (PowerPC), OS X 10.4.11 I used to use...

PS: Since posting the above, I have found a site that has a universal version of VLC 0.9.9a and have downloaded and installed it. So I am back to square one. But I should still be grateful for any information about VLC 0.9.10 not being able to open its encoders.

Further to my cri de coeur above, if it turns out that VLC 0.9.10 (PPC version) or VLC 0.9.10 (universal version), both of which I have now tried (and both of which failed to open their encoders) is not compatible with my computer (Mac G4 PPC, OS X 10.4.11) despite the VideoLan website listing them ...

Computer: Mac G4 (PowerPC), OS X 10.4.11 I used to use VLC 0.9.9. I today discovered that there was a later version for Tiger, viz. 0.9.10 Grishenko - (c), and installed this. When I tried to transcode and save a stream (which played perfectly well in this new VLC), I got an error message, saying th...

Here are the details of my system: Computer: Mac G4 (PowerPC), OS X 10.4.11. VLC: 0.9.9a Grishenko - (c) (PowerPC). I have been trying to save to disk a short video-and-sound stream from a website. This is the address of the stream: <http://cgi.omroep.nl/cgi-bin/streams?/nps/cultura/CU_Varese_Etude....

I, too, have been trying to play video files downloaded by the BBC IPlayer Desktop in VLC. My reason is that my Mac is a PPC one (G4,OS X 10.4.11)) and playback of the downloaded videos is hopeless: jerky, with sound not synchronized with picture. I am not that interested in removing the DRM stuff a...

Thanks so much for that. It works fine now. I realize what I did wrong: I used the bottom option of the three (http:/ftp…) instead of the top one (UDP/RTP). Best wishes for Christmas and New Year.

I have just installed VLC 0.9.8 on a Mac G4 (PPC) with OSX 10.4.11. I am obviously being a complete idiot — but for the life of me I cannot get it to play a live audio broadcast (e.g. from a radio station) or a video (e.g. from YouTube). And as a result, of course, I cannot get it to save such audio...
