acknowledged.

Took a quick look at the developers page and the windows build instructions - looks very well organized and documented... I might just give it a whirl, once I get a couple other things off my plate.

till then...

Great! One other thing I would like to point out in the messages log I posted back on page two of this thread (besides the zero cpu times)... Perhaps it is just a language issue, but I thought it odd that the decoder threads "joined" AFTER sitting there 21 minutes and me hitting the Stop b...

The problem is that for some as yet unknown reason vlc stops working. And as far as your other questions go (not that I see the relevance to the vlc problem), I infrequently do program updates, and I NEVER do "automatic" updates. When I do decide to apply upgrades/updates, I either (a) try...

re: uptime/hibernates/etc - basically, my point is I don't reboot unless/until I HAVE to, and I seldom am forced to by OS issues. It sort of slipped my mind, but I just realized that actually BOTH my systems are currently experiencing this problem. I had forgotten that vlc had glitched on my w2k box...

My W2K machine was last rebooted 1/25/06, when I did a disk image backup. My XP box was last rebooted 3/14/06, when I upgraded a hard drive. Note that I have a UPS (got tired of losing my work on power glitches), and that I 'hibernate' the systems (rather than 'shutdown') when I want to power them d...

ME TOO

on two differant systems, one running w2k, the other xp (completely differant hardware configs) tried with both 0.8.2 and 0.8.4 Things go along fine, then one day pffttt... vlc won't play any movies. I have poked and prodded it every which way, and the ONLY thing I've found which will clear the prob...

Thanks for the pointer. I downloaded

/build/win32/trunk-20050904-0126/vlc-0.8.4-svn20050904-win32.zip

Started playing the stream, let it run overnight, this morning it was looping again with the same "main error: recv failed (10054)" message.

aacplus stream 'recv failed' error loop

vlc 0.8.2 on Windows 2000 After listening to the Groove Salad aacplus stream for many hours, sound suddenly stops, cpu maxes out, and messages window shows "main error: recv failed (10054)" repeating over and over. netstat shows open port, but remote addr is 0.0.0.0 Hitting stop and then s...

I also recently ran into this... Downloaded an older AVI, and on playing it with VLC the video periodically shudders as though there is a frame ordering issue. Playing it with MPC and XVID codec is fine, playing it with WMP 6.4 and 3IVX codec is also fine. The frequency with which it happens makes m...
