Stream record limit?

Postby nmchris » 22 Jan 2019 18:49

Hello to all :)

I have a question regarding default VLC settings that are being used for recording in Ace stream player on windows 10. Yesterday I have opened ace stream id and then started recording it. I hit record button ~ at midnight, and left the player running until 7 am today. Laptop was running normally, with just display turned off.I set to save recording on Desktop. When I woke up and checked program, I have found out that only ~2h 41min was recorded, which it's ~ 1,91GB. I was hoping to record tennis game that was supposed to start ~ 3 am so program never reached it anyway. I only remember that stream was still going on when I've checked it in the morning, on the timeline there was a yellow/orange bar that filled ~ 1/4 from the end <- don't know what that was. To finish recording I have clicked Recording button and then stopped the stream by clicking on a square 'stop' button. I was running on default settings, I've only specified save path and h264 profile from 'high' to 'main' (not sure if this codec was used by the way) [ tools -> Preferences -> input & codecs - profile & level of h264)

My question: is there a default time :?: limit for recording or for file size? Should I change something in settings to prevent that in the future?

My hard drive has ~80GB left space,
I have intel i7 with Geforce 970M and fast Samsung M.2 SSD system drive.

I would appreciate any help. Thanks.

What is your VLC version ?
And which version of VLC are you using, 32 or 64 bits ?

Lotesdelere, it is Ace Player HD 2.2.7 (VLC 2.0.5) - 32 bit.

I was curious of there was ever a fix for this? Running in to a similar issue with recording a stream.
