Ref VLC 3.0.18 64bit on Windows 11 Pro.
I have two PCs with this setup.
VLC works with short MP3 files on one, but not the other.
Short (~1 or 2 seconds) MP3 files will not play correctly,
just sometimes make a quick blip noise, like they are playing way too fast.
All my longer files play fine, just not these short ones.
I recall (not sure) that short files used to work on "bad" VLC/PC before Windows 11 update.
For the "bad" VLC/PC setup,
I set VLC Message window to 1 (error) and find
wasapi error: cannot negotiate audio format (error 0x88890008)
I set VLC Message window to 2 (debug) and find about WASAPI
Only that one wasapi error for short files on "bad" VLC/PC
For longer files, and for all files (short and long) on the PC where these files work
I find
(no errors)
wasapi debug: modified format
wasapi debug: buffer size : 96000 frames
wasapi debug: maximum latency: 000 ns
wasapi debug: default period : 10000000 ns
wasapi debug: minimum period : 3000000 ns
main debug: using aout stream module "wasapi"
Side note: both these PCs have Audacity installed with WASAPI record mode enabled.
Changing Audacity WASAPI configuration does not affect symptom.
Any ideas, what next?
I tired complete uninstall, reboot, reinstall VLC, no effect
For now I am using an alternate player for short MP3 files
