I'm having problem with playing an online video through sdp file, i.e., video is played correctly, but after a while the screen freezes.
demux module "live555"
RTP subsession 'video/MP4V-ES'
decoder module "avcodec"
video output module "vout_directx", but opengl also freezes
The messages I receive are:
...
[00000373] main video output warning: late picture skipped (155000)
[00000373] main video output warning: late picture skipped (156000)
[00000373] main video output warning: late picture skipped (157000)
[00000373] main video output warning: late picture skipped (158000)
[00000373] main video output warning: late picture skipped (159000)
[00000372] avcodec decoder error: more than 5 seconds of late video -> dropping frame (computer too slow ?)
...
Unchecking drop late frames didn't resolve the problem.
Increasing the buffer size seems to delay the screen freeze. With a buffer of 250ms the screen freezes within 12h.
I've also tested with vlc version 0.8.6i, 0.9.8a and 1.0.0-git-20090112-0005. The problem seems to occur in all versions
