Dolby Atmos and VLC

Hey guys! Sort of gave myself a crash-course about VLC issues surrounding Dolby Atmos tracks. All I had to do was grab the vlc-3.0.0-rc1-20171207-0533 nightly build and it seems to be handling Atmos-based autio tracks now. Do you guys have any idea when 3.0.0 will be official through your main page-...

VLC and 7.1 DTS streams

I have a question or two concering VLC (2.2.2) and 7.1 DTS audio tracks contained within MKV files (Windows 7 Ultimate x64). Currently I'm using a 7.1 usb audio headset and want to make sure I'm getting the 7.1 experience. In previous versions of VLC (i.e. 1.1.11 for example) it would allow me to se...

Converted audio track shorter than movie?

Hey everyone! I seem to be running into a bit of an issue. I've converted a DTS audio track from "Terminator" to an mp3 for basic editing in audacity. The trouble though is the movie file is 1 hour 47 minutes and odd seconds long... however the audio track when converted is shorter than th...

Re: Classic look - circa 0.8.6d

Jean-Baptiste.... if I understand your directions, I would simply go to "TOOLS > PREFERENCES > INTERFACE (tab)" and set the "Display Mode" to "Classic", correct? The trouble with this is that by default it's set to this mode. Is there any way to scale-back the size of e...

Classic look - circa 0.8.6d

Hello everybody! So - I have questions and hopefully I'll be able to get things straightened out! :) For years, I've been happily using VLC 0.8.6d (and it's been perfect) until some of my media doesn't like to be decoded at all (h.264 files) and VLC will crash. The only way around this is to update ...

Re: 16:9 ratio changing windows theme

Aah! I've actually found the issue! I've found that it was an issue of running DUAL MONITOR OUTPUTS. When running fullscreen on one monitor (leaving the desktop shown on the second screen), when enabling fullscreen and setting aspect ratio to 16:9 mode, this is what is causing the issue. Disabling e...

Re: 16:9 ratio changing windows theme

Unfortunately, you couldn't be more wrong. :) As I've clearly stated - This has NOT happened before the past two days. (I'm not trying to sound pompous at all here - simply through trial, i know this is not the case whatsoever). This happens to be a fullscreen issue that did not appear prior to the ...

Re: How to get better performance when playing HD H.264

This might go without saying - but I had originally tried this method on my laptop (1.66ghz dual core AMD chip - 256L2 cache) which was HORRIBLE with alot of 72- resolutioned h.264 encoded films. Enabling this option will allow for less "skipping", but drastically reduces the quality of th...

16:9 ratio changing windows theme

Hey guys.. this is a problem I've been running into now for actually the past two days. Oddly enough, I havn't downloaded or updated anything in the past two days to cause this to happen. Media that i'll play (.mkv, .avi, mpeg, and mp4 as well) 98% of the time seems to change my windows color scheme...
