Hello all,
When ever I try to move the location of my playback (as in fastforward or rewind) the applicatino freezes.
I also noticed that the length of the video appears incorrectly after this error occurs (the original lengtsh is about 30 minutes and after appears an hour and a half).
I tried reinstalling but that didn't help.
Any advice would be apreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Update to last version and reset preferences.

That seems to be the canned answer. I did it and still the same trouble on my system.

Re: VLC freezes when moving playback location
Installed MKV Player and the video plays perfect. Not sure why VLC is having so many problems with this.

Without logs, I cannot guess...

Re: VLC freezes when moving playback location
This can happen when seeking without cues (ie seek index) vlc will read the whole file until the wanted time and it can take a bunch of time if the file is big and/or on an slow support like USB key...
Showing the logs could help (tools->messages->set verbosity to 2 then start the playback).
