i have a screen grab showing the hotkey window bug, but see no way to embed it here, or to email it to anyone. other boards allow me to upload a jpg or a zip this one does not ? why is your error reporting so tortuous & so unsuitable for novices ? I should not have to register for picture hostin...

so a quick scan of the board shows 3 threads already for hot key bugs in 1.10 one poster cant get his left arrow to work but his right arrow is OK - another has a working left arrow but a broken right arrow. I have both of those working but my up/down are now misbehaving. I had no problems with 1.01...

i have right & left arrows both working OK in 1.10 - I have them set for 10 second jumps. I use the "short Jump" hotkey setting, not the "very short", then I set the time interval further down the screen. BUt i have a problwm with UP / Down arrows misbehaving., I reported thi...

2. File a bug then. 3. I have a 1920x1200 and I don't see the bug, so I would need a picture, yes. 4. If you empty your advanced toolbar, or if you didn't add the adv toolbar to one toolbar, it won't show, of course. I think you posted this while I was editing my previous post, so please re-read my...

0. The data is in vlc-qt-interface.conf 1. maximized interface? 2. share your vlcrc file 3. pix 4. You played too much with customize oK- taking your responses 1 by 1 1.Hmm - after more testing, I can reproduce this at will - here's the steps to reproduce that bug. 1.1 open VLC - no media. 1.2. pre...

i spend ages on the view - customise interface screen getting the controls exactly as I want them. I backup vlcrc & restore it after upgrading to latest version (1.05 to 1.10), yet sill my customisations are lost and have to be redone. why is that - where are these particular settings stored and...

is there any way to customise the full screen control bar. I want mine to have the same buttons as the windowed version ( which I can set via view-customise interface ) ?

When it's ready.

same question - when will we have wallpaper support in win 7 without the "colour schem changed to basic" side-edffect ?

thanks for help to date - I reckon I'll go with my restored vlcrc from a few weeks back, as that's reasonably up to date, & take regular copies of that if I mess with program settings in future. i doubt the mystery of why program suddenly took to immediately closing can be debugged easily - does...

vlcrc just stores preferences. Cache is stored to %appdata%\vlc Sleep mode might happen since the current disable method isn't best possible solution. thanks- so when problems occur it is possible to clear cache but preserve preferences by deleting only %appdata%\vlc and preserving vlcrc ? pity the...

If you modify the the start bar shortcut, it still crashes? hmmm - modify it to what exactly ? start bar short cut is just the path to VLC.exe . can't really be anything else , can it ? I found a vlcrc backup from a few weeks back & switched to that. I have saved the "problem" vlcrc i...

vlc 1.05 vista home premium. program works fine if I double click a media file, but I cannot just launch VLC. when I launch it from start bar it appears for like 1 second then vanishes. no error message. start bar short cut is just vlc.exe no strange command line parameters. have started & pause...

I can "almost" fully control my playback of DVDs in VLC using only my cyberlink remote to emulate a keyboard, plus some creative customisationm of hot keys, but sometimes I get stuck on DVD root or title menus as the only way forward is to use a sinlg left mouse click to select a menu item...

I put VLC onto my new win 7 home premium PC & copies over my old preferences ( fom XP). now whenever I launch an AVI, windows tells me it is having tto switch to vista basic colour schem because of an incompatibility. does not hapeen if I view same avi files in other players, so I guess I need t...

so - no joy on resolving this. looks like my "fix" will be to change default MP3 player from VLC to Zoom - no focus issues when using that! because I need to select & control audio files via a remote control + intelliremote interface when teaching, the focus issue is a showstopper - I ...

i have a specific lost focus issue in vista - maybe there is a fix via preferences for this:- VLC is default MP3 player. I open a data folder, double click a file, VLC plays it and focus shifts to VLC - all good. but if I return to the file folder and click another file, while the 1st one is still p...

VLC has separate hotkeys for play only pause only play+pause stop if a video is stopped - by pressing stop - then Id expect to ba able to restart it by pressing whatever has been assigned to PLAY ( on keyboard or remote) - but the play hotkey does not work - only the play+pause hot key works at that...

Bad encode. Use different MP3 encoder. Fixing the file with mp3DirectCut might also help. (I can't test your file, since RapidShare is again full of leechers) OK - encode wouldlhave been with a version of real player at it's highest VBR setting. let me try playing the track from CD... seems VLC can...

any takes ?

I put one sample problem track on rapidshare but bug allpies to all tracks ripped from that CD.
the fact that it happens on 2 different PCs, with 2 different makes of sound card ( creative, Xonar ), and in 2 different versions of VLc: 1.02 / 1.05 surely rules out a lot of possibilities ?

I get this on 2 different pcs, with 1.02 and 1.05 simple audio tracks ripped into MP3 from guitar instruction book CD. (petrucci - wild Stringdom) VLC does not seem to like loud metronome clicks! errors look like this: mpgatofixed32 debug: libmad error: bad main_data_begin pointer mpgatofixed32 debu...

Another problem is with the "postprocessing quality" option. Isn't it supposed to do the same as the one in the context menu, but just for permanent? However when the option (in input & codecs) is set to 6 (or any other lower than that) the context menu equivalent always shows that &q...

But I can't find a setting which will auto display it when each track is played.

Have you tried VLC 1.1.0 nightly builds? It has some art fixes.

no but if you are sugestign it's not in 1.03 but may well be in the next final realease I will wait for that - thanks.

VLC apparantly does not recognise that its stil playing the same album VLC doesn't have concept of albums. With every new file everything in playback chain is created from scratch. ok - so no albums then, but I have the album cove aer embedded into each individual MP3 file in mp3 tag ( put there wi...

then 2nd bug appears - window size of VLC is slightly too small to display album cover - it crops the pitcure unless I resisze manually. & any manually resise is lost if I close & re-open player. Could you post picture/screenshot that shows the issue? if the letter, then where is it stored ...

It seems from searching here that I can't make audio device stereo the default unless I also use directx in place of waveout. Waveout audio output module doesn't have option to force the output. It should use same option as your Windows Speaker setup is set. I was also searching through VLC options...
