Re: Issue with hardware acceleration while trying to play old WMV files with VLC 3.0.20 "automatic" settings

While these may temporarily fix the issue, they can not be called solutions because of the fact that this worked without changing settings before 3.0.20. This is a regression in 3.0.20.

Re: RC6 Playlist Bug

No problem.

Since I can't replicate it on the other machine and you can't either, I won't bother putting in a ticket.
Devs can't fix what they can't replicate.

The un-docked playlist is a work around for the issue.

Re: RC6 Playlist Bug

- Yes - Correct I just uploaded a sample and referenced this thread. However, I could not reproduce it on my one system either. I'm trying to figure out the differences between our two systems. Besides a slightly different GPU and CPU, they are identical. I mentioned the 4K display earlier because t...

Re: Blu-Ray Support

Changes to the way VLC loads DLLs have rendered this impossible. These changes were in response to the CIA vault leaks.

libaacs for VLC Branch or Trunk

When I copy the following files into the VLC release (2.2.4) directory, VLC finds them and allows me to play a Blu-ray: libaacs.dll libbdplus.dll libgcrypt-20.dll libgpg-error6-0.dll However, when I try the same with either the branch (2.2.5) or trunk (git) builds, VLC just returns the missing libra...

I cannot get Blu-Ray to play at all. I downloaded the aacs stuff and put it all in the correct directories and it still refuses to work. I keep getting the same stupid "This disc needs the AACS library and your system doesn't have it" error message. I'm running Windows 10 and the version ...

Re: Green Lines in Video output

They have only addressed security issues and some regressions in the latest releases.
So far even the next release,2.2.4, only has a few security updates.

Re: Update FFmpeg

Also, what version of FFmpeg is the Branch/2.2 compiled against?
I would like to know so I can ask someone over on the FFmpeg side to back port to that branch, if possible.

Re: Update FFmpeg

VLC 2.2 is not compatible with FFmpeg 3.0 or later. Unless you have somebody to do all the fixing and testing that this entails, the answer is no.
No problem.
What about the Trunk?

Update FFmpeg

Would it be possible for the developers to consider re-basing VLC against a more recent version of FFmpeg? Particularly a version from after 4/13/16. I request this because Paul B Mahol comitted two WMA lossless patches on 4/13 that greatly improved 24-bit support for WMA lossless. I just tried the ...

Re: Green Lines in Video output

This is a known issue in VLC 2.2.2
You can revert down to 2.2.1 or try the nighties (2.2.3 or 3.0).
Sometimes changing the video output module mitigates the issue.

Re: Unwanted popups and logfiles about command line playing

Delete %AppData%\vlc and launch the program again.
If that doesn't work, uninstall VLC from the control panel, delete the program directory, then delete %AppData%\vlc.
Download a fresh copy from a trusted source and reinstall.
