Issues with VLC 1.0 - bug report

Postby LutzA » 20 Feb 2009 19:28

Hi,

As I expierenced problems with two screens on latest official release of VLC, I tested VLC 1.0 from here:

http://people.videolan.org/~jb/build/vl ... -20090218/

Some problems:
- cannot close VLC (Win XP) - must use CTRL-ALT-DEL
- cannot stop video with stop button - must use pause/play button
- VLC crashes very often
- Playlist - no save is possible in playlist - only in VLC main windows (does not save the last used folder - have to go there each time manually)
- Playlist - any order I try to save is lost after save - VLC sorts all the videos again and again alphabetically
- click on VLC system tray icon shows menu, but system pop up of Windows XP "VLC media player - control menu for player" goes in front of the menu - it lasts there. So I mainly cannot use the VLC system tray menu

Maybe you can reply with a link to a new version when it is available. :)

Well, this is very valuable information, if you can fill trac bugs that would be very nice, especially for the 3 last ones.

Thanks, my pleasure. What do you mean with "fill trac bugs"?

I also noticed that A-B loop is broken.

As for putting bug reports in trac, I can't seem to use the same login for trac, as I do for forums?

Well, this ticket is stupid, since it is too vague and too incomplete...

However, the issues from the 1st post are interesting, and not trac'ed

It is but not, when if you know how it happened in the first place.
