Just pat should be enough for a little test, but would be better to have the complete transport stream over such a change situation.

I posted some comments and a possible workaround to 683. I do however not have any possibility to test it, so I didn't commit it yet. I did also investigate 684 a bit as well, and I don't belive what you say there is true. To work more on that I will need a snippet of data that makes vlc reproduce t...

VLC uses ffmpeg for h264 decoding. ffdshow uses ffmpeg for h264 decoding. If vlc is faster than ffdshow then the reason for vlc being faster is just because vlc is not dshow based.

VLC does recheck the file size regularly and should not stop at the end of the file as of the start of playback. If it does it is not a lacking feature but a bug. Please report vlc version, and os.

The supplied ts file is seriously broken. First of all it has spurious extra random bytes littered all over it. Secondly it lack PAT and is thus invalid mpeg2 ts. See all over google for how to set up dvbstream to include pat and pmt so vlc can read the output, how to get rid of the extra bytes I do...

Is this with the same cam as the case where descrambling both channels did work? Most cams doesn't support more than one program at once.

I have commited a possible fix for case 3 in svn commit 15085. Could you please test this?

for case 1 try editing modules/access/dvb/en50221.c find the line saying #define HLCI_WAIT_CAM_READY 0 and change to #define HLCI_WAIT_CAM_READY 1 As for case 2 I don't understand how the card can limit the number of channels descrambled. Can this card stream more than one free to air channels? for ...

This feature is not yet ready. A patch is waiting in trac.videolan.org. If you have time/energy and knowledge you could try it out and give some feedback an perhaps some fixes and improvements

you can manually force the announcement interval in vlc. If i recall the announcement interval algorithm correctly it requires the announcer to listen to the sap channel, and monitor bandwidth or send frequency. These two parts are done in very different parts of vlc that isn't easily fusable. Also,...

what happens when you try it? do you get damaged video or do you not get anything at all. There is a bug when reading compressed content from directshow devices in 0.8.1, you're probably stumbeling into that. Try a recent snapshot from http://www.videolan.org/~videolan

it may also use ffmpeg, if mad is unavailable, or you force ffmpeg

We are working on improving the playlist. The next release will have a much more flexible playlist core, but the gui probably still have a way to go.

The "vlc as a winamp plugin" is a very bad idea due to licensing issues among others.

Next release will have some preliminary support for options like "use japanese audio language" and "use english subs" for file formats that store language info.

this ability have been available for ages allready. Please try stuff before you ask for it.

check out current svn. There were some fixes for amd64 build not long ago

which is because 0.8.1 has a known bug when reading compressed content from a dshow source. Try a nightly build at http://www.videolan.org/~videolan

that wouldn't be easy, since vlc do not use any directshow filters, except input filters (like capture card drivers)

looks like you are trying to cross-compile, but not passing the right options to configure. look in INSTALL.win32 for examples on how to cross-compile for windows

It is incorporated in the latest nightly build, that can be found at http://www.videolan.org/~videolan.

It sets the align flag to left on the right part and right on the left part, just like you wanted, but couldn't do because the command line would affect both.

feel free to try. I don't think it will make much sense to do step by step running though

your vlc isn't compiled with faad2 support

you still need quicktime player installed. that's the drawback

vlc has used mad as it's primary mp3 decoder for years now. If you can listen to mp3 files with vlc on windows, then that plugin is at work

starting with the next release.
