vlc not even fast

Postby Bertjuhh66 » 08 Nov 2012 19:49

Me and my friend are watching movies so now and then, mostly MKV files. we both start VLC 2.0.4 at the same time, but after a short while he is a few seconds behind me. After syncing this problem re-occurs...any ideas? All drivers are up-to date at both ends.

This can either be a performance problem on the slower computer, or an imprecise clock on either of them.

I doubt this...both systems are almost identical, and it only occurs with mkv files, not with iso's or any other file.

Then you explain this how exactly? Divine intervention?

Use netsync to sync it.

I think there is a misunderstanding. We don't stream. We both have the movie on our local machine. we start it at countdown and after 15 minutes he's 20 seconds behind (audio and video)
