Random interruptions in both Audio and Video

[justmeee]

Win 7, 64-bit
VLC 2.2.6 Umbrella

Anytime I play a video that runs 40+ mins, I get random interruptions in both audio and video. Usually there are several videos in a playlist.

The screen gets gray and pixelated, and the audio gets choppy. It will last several seconds and then return to normal. It might happen at different points, and will usually happen 2-4 times per video. it is getting very annoying.

It does not seem to happen on shorter videos approx 20 mins long.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you very much.

Hello,

Could you try with the latest 3.0 RC https://nightlies.videolan.org

[justmeee]

Which one do I download? I tried the .exe and the .zip and neither would open.

It should open unless you have restrictive policies on you computer regarding downloaded files.

[justmeee]

I got it. Give me a couple of days to test it out and I'll let you know if the issue is resolved. Thank you.

The first thing I'm noticing in the new 3.0 you recommended is that under 'preferences', if you hover the mouse just for a second or two on any cone/icon at the top ("Interface, Audio, Video, subtitles/osd, input/codecs, hotkeys")... if you hover over anyone of those for a second or two, then the video window automatically comes to the front and covers the preferences window.. it's very annoying... i can keep minimizing it, but every time i take a second too long to click on one of those icons, the video i was watching just pops back up to center stage, as it were... very irritating.... so a new problem there... (ps. if this first part is supposed to be posted separately, kindly advise, thank you)...

in the meantime, still evaluating the random interruptions and will have to reply about that later after more testing..

thank you very much..

How do I stop the computer screen from turning off and the computer from going into sleep during playback in this version?

[chouquette]

Your screen goes to sleep even when you're playing a video file?

[justmeee]

yes. The screen turns off after a few mins as if I was not playing a video in the new 3.0 Rc version.

[justmeee]

the other thing i found unpleasant in the new version is when you add a folder, it automatically expands it in the playlist, and the icons next to the titles are different too...

in the previous version, it did not expand those folders until they were selected to play either manually or automatically via playlist...

might i suggest a compromise, perhaps have a button or checkbox somewhere to select "expand all folders" so we have the choice of leaving them closed until we're ready for them, and for others who want to see it all at once can just select the option... personally i would really enjoy the option because some lists i would choose option A and leave the folders closed until ready, and other times i would prefer option B to expand all folders at once... please?....

anyway, between this, and the screen turning off during video play, i have not been able to really test and see if the original problem is fixed or not by using this newer version... so for now, i am back to using my previous version until further instructions are posted...

Thank you very kindly...

Hello,

the screensaver & autoraise isn't supposed to happen.

With VLC 3.0:

could you provides us logs?
* Open Tools -> Messages (set Verbosity to 2) before you start the playback and then paste the full resulting log here or on Pastebin.com if it's too long.

could you tell us the video output in use:
* while playing, open Tools -> Messages -> Module Tree -> vout diplay "xxxx"

then, could you also try to reset your preferences?

thank you.

[justmeee]

under "Module Tree", there was nothing labeled "vout display"...

[justmeee]

quick question while you're looking that over.... is there a way to lengthen the time you have to click the "continue" option/button when you go back to a video?.. for us older/slower people, it disappears too quickly...

[justmeee]

Anything?

I've had to downgrade while awaiting your reply, and the other issues are really annoying.

Thank you.
