cancel the celebration - audio has gone a.w.o.l. again! all I did was watched a few .avi files & tweaked a few preferences that had gone missing after I had reset cache & preferences & then copied over my preferences from my other install a.f.a.i.k, , all that I tweaked were .avi prefere...

Here's my real-world user reason for wanting this: I have some little clips in flv format that are guitar playing how-to videos. I use them when practicing guitar and trying to learn songs. They are kind of small so I zoom it to double size. I watch it, I practice, and I watch it again. But each ti...

VLC's config file is C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\vlc\vlcrc I recommend you clean up using the start menu entry and then copy over the preferences file from your working PC. OK - I'll try that & report back YES - complete success - thanks. if the preferences file had a mo...

Smells a lot like broken preferences on the PC with the non-working AAC output. You can reset both Preferences and Cache using an entry in your start menu. Does this solve the issue? That is possible as I alwasy keep preferences when upgarding I have not tried that solution yet because i spent ages...

...Therefore, the problem is located somewhere else. Do you guys get any audio output from VLC? yes - already answered that twice! please read the whole thread before jumping in. to recap again: I have two similar PCs - VLC audio for all file types works fine on one PC, but on the other PC the file...

Please support play/pause,stop, , next , previous media keys on MS remote & on muti-media keyboards. I know it's possible to work around this e.g. by assigning these functions to Enter & to number keys which are on the remote & which VLC can recognise. but there seems no way to get it to...

please explain what that reveals ??? VLC uses wrong decoder for audio which is why there is some issue. jeroensky: official older VLC versions can be found from http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/ and we don't merge topics. that's a good partial explanation - but why does in only happen ...

JUST POST SAMPLES OF THE FILES if he has the same probem as I had - see the "no sound with m4a, m4b" thread, http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=62902 than all files which need the m4a decoder will not work - so pointless to post specific samples. instead try the test fix t...

yes - I've no idea what that option does but I tried it on one of the previous files - grace.m4a - and it worked fine.

please explain what that reveals ???

There isn't a single message in those logs saying anything about aout (audio output module), so have you tried different audio output module as suggested earlier? Do other media players play sound? http://wiki.videolan.org/WindowsFAQ-1.0.x#Crackles.2C_pops.2C_hizzes_and_other_audio_anomalies Yes an...

it's a more complex issue I fear. I also have no audio for mp4 with vlc1.0 on one of my PCs, & I opened a thread about m4a & m4b a few days back - no help so far in there though :-( BUT I have the same vlc 1.0 & the same .mp4 files on a 2nd PC & on that PC they work OK. Both Pcs are ...

"All -> Preferences -> Interface, OK thanks - well hidden but I found the relevant tick box. I thought that VLC would remember the last postion of the simple/all toggle on the main preferences screen but apparently not. The full answer is go to tools - preferences - all - interface - tick/untic...

I've captured some messages - verbosity level 2 stuff from this problem insall. 1. grace.m4a, 2. sample.mov I guess I just do an inline paste as there's no attach a file option here ? grace.m4a: main debug: adding item `02 Grace.m4a' ( C:\MP3\Jeff Buckley\02 Grace.m4a ) qt4 debug: Adding a new MRL t...

minor niggle but I hate it when I can't solve "simple" problems". I have VLC v1.0 on 2 different PCs, When I launch player go to tools - preferences. one install defaults to "simple interface settings main screen" but on PC it the other defaults to "advanced settings &q...

Ctrl+A, suppr Hmm _ I went to try that but after an overnight shutdown all my media library entries had vanished anyway - that's not supposed to happen is it ? But you've given me enough of a clue: I put some files back in there & I see that CTRL+A does a "select all" and DEL key then...

"change audio output module" cannot be the answer. On both the owrking & non working installations that is set to "default." but when I play an m4a file on the problem install & watch the stats I see that the file is being demuxed butr that audio blocks decoded stays at z...

i added a large directory of files to VLC media library & now want to remove them. seems I can only delete them one file at a time which will take forever is there any wat to clear the media library & start over, or to remove an entire directory. I notice also, that unlike WMP, media library...

i have vlcplayver v1.0 on 2 pcs, both running windows xp & both with a similar collection of other palyers & codes - WMP, Quictime, Zoom player, Powerdvd, ffdshow, 3ivx... on one of the PCs, none of my .m4a & .m4b files are workign. the codec & file length info looks ok - all the sli...

I also have this "lost control panel" problem with version 9.08a - I did not have it with version 9.2 after lots of frustration , I found this thread & then checked my .ini file. the cursor settings in my .ini file were placing the controller off screen. e.g. Y value was 1100+ & my...
