Hi,
i have currently the problem, that vlc, or better obviously the (released) direct3d video output window, crashes in that way, that the video just stops. The vlc window itself seems to be usable, but the output window is frozen and can't be closed, or removed in any way. Play, pause and stop... of course don't work anymore, but menu for example is available.
This problem occures mostly when i step to the next item in the video list, but sometimes also just while playing. FIrst i thought it is restricted to special container and codec, but i found this problem for example with mkv/avc, mp4/divx, mov/avc.
Only it seems, that for avc this problem occures more often.
I tried switching hardware acceleration (gpu and ffmpeg), and i even already tried different versions: 2.0.2/32 bit, 2.0.2/64 bit, 2.0.3/32 bit, 2.0.4/32 bit, 2.0.4/64 bit. Everything the same. Also i have already cleaned the preference cache.
It does not seem to be direct vlc problem, but for example as i assume directx/3d. Is this possible? I am not sure, but i think it worked previously with 2.0.2, but not sure about this.
I hope someone has an idea/solution for this.

Reset the preferences.
Re: VLC Video playing just stops/crashes
Hello,
as i already wrote i already reset the preferences. This is not the solution.
But in the meanwhile i fortunatley found a workaround for my problem. The real cause
i do not understand yet, but this solution is ok for me:
I started vlc out of a java vm! As i later recognized this problem does not occure if i
start vlc "normally". I am sure this didn't happen previously, so it is really strange.
My solution is, to start vlc with the dos command "start" asynchronously out of the
vm and this does also work. By the way i do it this way, because i have my own multimedia
tool implemented in java.
So this problem is resolved. I am really glad.
But this brings me to another question, maybe there is a solution for it:
Can i in any automated way (command line, web interface or even keyboard shortcuts would be fine,...) remove entries
from the playlist in vlc? I did not find it.
Regards,
Ijaja
