VLC hangs the system

[GREAT DNG]

Hello.

It all started with the fact that VLC, when scrolling through the video, tightly hung up the system. I didn’t have time to write about this problem, when another appeared: when watching a video with other headphones, a quiet sound. The conclusion is:

Code: Select all

Conclusion with the first headphones:

What is the problem here and how to fix it?

A complete system lockup would have to be a kernel or hardware problem. VLC should only be able to crash its own self.

I would try with different hardware decoding acceleration and/or video output settings.

How to do it?

[jill_vlabs]

either in the qt interface change the following option : Tools → Preferences → Input & Codecs → Codecs → Hardware-accelerated decoding
or on the commandline:
--avcodec-hw {any,vdpau_avcodec,vaapi,vaapi_drm,none}

Should this fix stuttering or quiet sound? If it's sound then it doesn't work. The hiccups seem to have disappeared.

No this was for the issue you were having with the system freezing not the audio. I'm sorry but I haven't quite caught on what your audio issue was
