The VideoLAN Forums

... and i have got a lot of trouble. It doesnt play HD video in x264.
i still got trouble to play movie in x264 HD (720/30p) (with 0.8.5) vlc crash and drop too many frames. I wish in newest version you can fixed that.

and all my video in x264 doesnt work.

Can you put some samples online ?

I changed a lot of stuff for H264 recently. All valid files should now play, but some broken ones may no longer play.

I move them on my personnal FTP or yours?

I just send in the folder incomming of your server a sample of Star Wars III in HD and add a txt file with the trouble.
i put on my own server an other sample

If you want other sample i have got a lot of that.

This is a new sample to test.
Thx a lot for your work.

These files have an error in them

[00000379] mkv demuxer debug: | | | | + width=1280

80x33 is the aspect ratio, wheras according to the specification it should be the display framesize. Since interpreting it differently doesn't really matter to VLC, I have changed this to accept the broken files. A new nightly build (tomorrow) should no longer have the problem.

BTW. the Brothers Grimm sample is so CPU intensive it won't even run on my dual G5. Don't expect to much.

I understand. This sample are broken but they work great on 0.8.5.

THX a lot again and again.

I'll try to test the nightly version and report bug.

BTW. This is not a question of CPU core, i have got a quad and vlc only use one by one.
