Error message: Computer too slow?

Postby iceman86 » 01 Jun 2008 23:13

I'm using Powerbook G4 1.5GHz 1.5Gb RAM.

I downloaded some videos recently in WMV format but I couldn't play it in VLC player. The error message reads:
ffmpeg: more than 5 seconds of late video -> dropping frame (computer too slow ?)

I've tried the hurry up option but still it does not work.

Can anyone help me?

Thank you.

You should try development versions.
