I've also tested the new build. It looks great by the way, but I discover 2 problems
- In the previous versions I had large problems with playing AVI files. When I played serveral small AVI files from a playlist (let's say 3 or 4) and repeated this playlist, after a while the video's started to jerk and they scipped frames. In the new version that looks a lot beter. But sometimes a video stil starts with a small "hickup" perhaps this is something that can be checked. By the way the Media Player Classic with the latest FFDShow codes runs without any of these hickups.
- Further I notice that there is no seamless playback anymore. Every AVI file is loaded seperately. This is a problem because I use the DVMax tool from matrox and that means that between every movie the Overlay disapears which results in a sync flash on my TV-out. Is there a option to turn seamless playback on again?
Further perfect! Looks very nice. Greatings from The Netherlands.

When playing a video if I put the mouse cursor over the progression slider and use the mouse wheel for fast seeking, I can see the slider moving but no seeking is performed, the video just keeps on playing in a normal way.

-----

I've uploaded a file named ARchange.ts to the FTP.
It's a simple MPEG2 TS but with an aspect ratio change in the middle from 4:3 to 16:9.
This file crashes VLC 0.9.2 RC1 on the aspect ratio change. The file is playing fine with VLC 0.8.6 though.
I'm going to do more tests about that later because it might be a major issue when watching at some DVB channels. For instance they often change the aspect ratio for ads in the middle of a film (e.g. film @ 16:9 -> ads break @ 4:3 -> back to the film @ 16:9).
Fixed since that version.

Just a minor bug here. I'm running 0.9.2, and also noticed this in an earlier nightly build from a couple weeks ago. When you run fullscreen, the mouse wheel is set to scroll forward and backward in the video. However, it also adjusts the volume up and down as well, and I've yet to figure out a way to stop it from doing this.
Fill a bug.

Hi,

Nice build!!!
One VERY small cosmetic bug: when you click "show extended settings" next go to "video effects" the last tab is selected by default instead of the first one.

Thanks a lot for your efforts!

Stephane

Sorry, I have tried several of the RC and the Nightly builds on my Computer, Vista SP1 release and the RC from the 10th is the only one not to start up right and go into Direct X play

as far as the Control / preference panels they have been not working correctly, I get a double panel effect.( this is in all 0.9 builds so far.)

Sorry I'm new at testing and do not know how to properly report I guess.

I should just leave it up to all of you I guess.

I'm going back to the 0.8h release it worked the best so far.

I love VLC by the way

Erm which version ? What is fixed ? Or do you mean you have already fixed it in your own debug build ?

I've just tried DVB-T with VLC 0.9.2 RC1 and it crashes on aspect ratio change or when a new aspect ratio information is sent (looks like they are sending the aspect ratio info each time the program is changing even if the aspect ratio itself won't be different).

And also when using the Open Capture Device menu, I select either a Video or an Audio device and when I click on the Configure button then the configuration window is popping up behind the menu window so you have to move windows to be able to access the configuration window.
Looks like the menu window is always on top.

0.9.2 RC2 Hotkeys

Postby jstartin » 12 Sep 2008 16:23

With this build installed on Vista Home SP1 with "clean" default preferences, and using it as a player for mainstream video file formats, some of the hotkeys seem to work imperfectly. Annoyances rather than blockers, but the "user experience" is spoilt a little. Is it just me?

Forward/backward jumps work properly to start with. But using the "time scroll bar" (if that is what it is called) leaves the hotkeys inoperative. Toggling the elapsed/remaining time (bottom right of standard interface) with a mouse click restores hotkey function.

Ctrl+T does not call up the "go to time" dialog when first used. If I open "go to time" from the menu and then cancel it the hotkey then works (but sometimes it breaks again later; I can't identify the events that cause this though).

Several of the default hotkeys with ALT+letter combinations are identical to menu shortcuts and invoke the latter - ALT+P (previous DVD chapter/playlist menu), ALT+H (go forward in browsing history/help menu), ALT+M (display OSD menu/media menu are examples, but there are more. And F1 "play playlist bookmark 1" is the standard Windows help key. OK, they can be customised, but it might be nicer if the default installation was free of "conflicts" :wink:

Hotkeys that call dialogs mostly don't work in full screen ("f" key) mode (examples are CTRL+P, CRTL+L, CTRL+T) where they would be most useful.

Finally a question on an unrelated aspect. If I load a playlist that contains bookmarks (made and saved from VLC and trying both m3u and xspf types), I don't get the bookmarks back into VLC. Should this work and, if it should, how do I do it?

Very interesting return...

I am working on the conflicts. I will solve all of them except the F1 one.

Fullscreen doesn't launch tool dialogs. This is wanted. Sorry.

The bookmarks aren't saved AFAIK.

For the time and the keys on slider, I will do what I can.

Normal.
Thanks for your attention to these annoyances. Pity about the "normal" status of the last one - I know nothing about the technical issues but it would be good to be able to call these dialogs over an "f" full screen display, in due course.

Regarding saving and recalling bookmarks (earlier posts in this thread), bookmark positions appear to be saved in the playlist file, as seen if I open it in a text editor, but VLC open playlist doesn't do anything with them. I'm new to VLC, but there was a command line parameter to enable parsing of bookmarks in previous versions. The old instructions in the Wiki no longer seem to work though.

I've found a little problem with the SSA subtitles from this video:
http://rapidshare.com/files/113536801/S ... _.mkv.html

The vertical and bottom subtitles are correctly aligned together however they should be more to the right of the screen:

Like this:

And also it seems that the vertical subtitles are not properly displayed and you have to turn your head to the right to be able to read them:

Another issue in vlc-0.9.2-rc1-win32 ...

Postby mikeyd » 13 Sep 2008 01:35

Testing vlc-0.9.2-rc1-win32 ...

Cool - Ticket #1880 (VOB files freeze) seems to be solved!

But seeking while in pause mode doesn't work for all kind of (video) files.
Reproduce:

1. Start any video file
2. Press Pause button
3. Change time trackbar position

The video only moves (no picture change) to the new position if pressing 'Play' again.

----

And why there are now dependencies from libvlc.dll to libiconv-2.dll and libgcrypt-11.dll and so on?

Re: Another issue in vlc-0.9.2-rc1-win32 ...

Testing vlc-0.9.2-rc1-win32 ...

Cool - Ticket #1880 (VOB files freeze) seems to be solved!

But seeking while in pause mode doesn't work for all kind of (video) files.
Reproduce:

1. Start any video file
2. Press Pause button
3. Change time trackbar position

The video only moves (no picture change) to the new position if pressing 'Play' again.

And why there are now dependencies from libvlc.dll to libiconv-2.dll and libgcrypt-11.dll and so on?
Create an enhancement bug report, but this seem normal to me :D

There are dependencies to smaller the size of the package. If you don't like it, compile your own vlc.
