Jesus............... You are right.I had a similar problem with MKV files from a network share.
It seems that, at least after I reset the preferences, the MKVs do start playing... but they take way way way longer to start up than they did with 2.1.5, such that you might think they're not loading.
It doesn't seem to help for me...Does it help if you untick the "Preload MKV files in the same directory" option ?
Menu Tools -> Preferences (Show Settings = ALL) -> Input/Codecs -> Demuxers -> Matroska
The option is on the right panel. Untick it then save, exit and restart VLC.
Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit and I'm running a Synology NAS. I also put the mkv files to the mkv-network-test via an old Windows XP machine but to no avail. Same old delays.I'm running a Synology NAS, same as xmichelo. Anyone else running Synologys or other Linux-based NAS?
I'm wondering something - what OS are people running? I was having this problem on Windows 10.0.9926; I can't seem to reproduce it using 2.2.0 on two Windows 7 machines.
Log file link below is of a 5:41 minute long MKV file stored on an external USB drive connected to a Belkin N300 router running TomatoUSB firmware (Samba). File is accessed on the local network and takes approximately 18 to 25 seconds to load. MP4 version of the same file loads in approximately 3 seconds from the same network location.Can you share the logs, please?
It works fine !
