Problem with slider

Postby gtaillandier » 10 Jun 2007 15:20

Hello
I've downloaded the latest versio of VLC and I have a problem:
when I use the slider to advance the video, the video is closed.
The main menu appears.

Can someone tell me why ?

Thank you for your answers.

Sincerely.

Hi

What can I give for details:I'm looking a video ( extension flv ). If I want to go forward in the video, I use the slider at bottom of the video.
After that, the video is "closed" and I return at the first screen ( when I launch vlc.exe )

I'm under Windows XP pro.

I hope it can help.

Sincerely.

Seeking within a FLV file is a known issue. Perhaps it will be fixed in the next revision.

Thanks that's awesome. Once again VLC is the only player you ever need... well except for rmvb files, but that's about the only one I can think of.

"Dusk". I was told that was wrong. :?

Anyway, even that's not impossible! :) There are alternatives to getting VLC to play real media files, it was mentioned in a thread, sorry can't think of it at the moment. :? It has to do with coding a plugin for VLC that'll allow it to read the dlls (in this case the codecs) installed on your computer only when the codec isn't found in its own database.

The developers aren't too will or even able to do this (lack of interest, time constraints) and would rather someone else code it and upload the patch. Anyone? :)

Drifting off-topic here, but Real Player isn't THAT bad, I only use it to watch a specific series, it just has an odd full screen keyboard command (Ctrl+3) and when you turn the volume up or down it actually turns your wave output up or down :s

I can live with it, but I'll deffo be searching for that thread you mentioned.

I have the same problem, latest release, but it's sporadic. Good to hear it's being addressed.

Thanks,
