It's disheartening that almost three full YEARS after this solution was provided -- and it works 100% of the time -- no official fix has been provided by the VLC team for this problem. I guess it's time I start researching an alternate video player. That's not a fix, that's a workaround. It looks l...
Since it's not trivial for others to make my script above work (in absense of the needed program), please try the following instead. It will basically do the same as the script: If VLC is stuck on scanning for renderer, then use VLC to open a random multicast network stream in the range of address ...
Just remembered to come back and update this myself, too. I spoke too soon on my previous post - Frypan's fix has definitely made things much, MUCH better, but there are still some videos I'm seeing very bad shearing / v-sync issues in, mostly those with fast panning motion of bold, contrasty backgr...
Just untick "Resize interface to video size" on the Interface Settings in preferences, restart VLC and you're done. -- (clicking save is not enough, you need to restart VLC before the change kicks in) Thanks a million - just got fed up of the vsync-like shearing and came to dig through th...
There are ways to avoid distortion within VLC. 1. Prevent VLC from permitting user adjustment of volume control > 100%: In Tools | Preferences set Show Settings to All In interface | Main Interfaces | Qt | Uncheck Allow the volume to be set to 400% Save There's a minor bug in this option, in that i...
This continues from the previous post, because as noted the length of this log was putting me over the character limit for a forum post. * Everything if you use "Repair", which also no longer plays the video in VLC. Instead, I get the repair status dialog which completes its progress bar i...

I get this problem with every video shot using a Pentax K-7 or Pentax K-x digital SLR. ... If I choose not to repair the video, VLC will show the first frame and then immediately stop playing.

I get this problem with every video shot using a Pentax K-7 or Pentax K-x digital SLR. The videos play just fine in Media Player and others, but VLC balks on every single one with the repair dialog. If I choose not to repair the video, VLC will show the first frame and then immediately stop playing....
Does this work for anybody in any current Windows version? I've tried it with the current VLC 0.9.9 release, as well as the latest nightly builds of both 1.0.0 and 1.1.0, and it doesn't work in any of the above for me. Here's what I'm doing: Media :: Advanced Open File - Click Add and select my main...
Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be squashed yet. At least two users including myself have tested 1.0.0 and found that problem still extant. The post linked below contains an offsite link to a build that seems to have squashed this bug: http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=55755&s...
The server/new server appears to be operational now (just no builds ATM). In the meantime you can find the latest build here: http://people.videolan.org/~jb/build/vlc-1.0.0-git-20090218/ Arite. Woot - just tried this build and confirmed that the fullscreen-on-secondary-monitor bug has been squashed...
I can't maximize fullscreen to second monitor! I have the latest jb-release of VLC, and I have also tried the latest official release, but my problem is still remaining. I have found a couple of threads discussing this issue, but I can't find any solution that works for me. How can I set my VLC to ...
It doesn't seem to have been fixed in those upcoming releases. Both myself and Little have tried 1.0.0 from the nightlies (well, j-b's build since the nightlies aren't working), and both of us have confirmed that the bug still exists in that 1.0.0 build. Edit: Meant to include a link to the other th...
