Video works in Luggage but not Twoflower!

Postby Aroema » 28 Jan 2013 02:48

Luckily I hung on the the old version of VLC player 'the luggage' as well as Twoflower. :)

I have a HTML5 video 149kB
https://thecoffeeshopmillionaires.net/? ... =YourHitID
which I extracted from my Firefox cache which works in 'the luggage' but not in twoflower!

I've uploaded to http://streams.videolan.org/upload/ and the below links

https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=64f5892d ... tU84NiQ3kI

I've put them on verbosity set to 1 (warning) and pasted the resulting logs below
Any clues anyone? :?:

Twoflower 2.0.2
mkv error: cannot load some cues/chapters/tags etc. (broken seekhead or file)
mkv error: cannot find any cluster, damaged file ?
ps warning: this does not look like an MPEG PS stream, continuing anyway
ps warning: garbage at input, trying to resync...

The Luggage 1.1.11
mkv error: cannot load some cues/chapters/tags etc. (broken seekhead or file)
mkv warning: no cues/empty cues found->seek won't be precise
main warning: vlc_object_find_name(postproc) is not safe!
main warning: PTS is out of range (-13311), dropping buffer
main warning: PTS is out of range (-36255), dropping buffer
mkv warning: EOF

Can you try a 2.1 or 2.0.6 nightly build? From http://nightlies.videolan.org

I'm a bit reluctant on installing a 3rd version of VLC but I have uploaded the file in my OP for anyone to try and play.

The file is truncated to a too short size: the first cluster is not even complete and vlc doesn't try to read elements which size is bigger than the filesize to avoid other problems due to a libmatroska limitation. As a result the cluster is not recognized as one and vlc aborts the reading.

Edit: Latest devs should allow me to remove this protection.

Oh yes it is rather short at 2½ seconds and one of the smallest at videos I have at 149kB.

It was taken from the firefox cache where i must have closed the browser window soon after i saw the video.

verbosity 2 debug
avcodec debug: couldn't guess format

even when i look in media information it doesn't say what media container it is (media info says codec is vp80). Trying other videos they also don't say. How is someone suppose to find out what type of media container a video has?

on vlc luggage only clue is when search format
audio_format debug: f32l->s16l, bits per sample: 32->16
