Sound choppy
Posted: 11 Feb 2013 16:25
I love VLC. That's why I am posting this info. Because I do have a workaround for this problem.
My problem: the sound on various files (avi, mpg mov) sometimes stops for a few seconds. The only thing that really works is playing the files in Windows Media Player. And I can't stand the Media Player being better at something than VLC
So, I am sure there is something wrong with these files, or my drivers or...... but if Media Player can handle it, why not VLC?
I have tried several settings in audio. The only setting that makes it a little better (less stops) is setting the output mode to: Win32 waveOut Extension output.
In that setting I get the following messages: (debug mode)
main warning: resampling stopped after 20135296 usec (drift: 1116)
waveout warning: aout_PacketNext no buffer got next_date=18167116 ms, 7 frames to play, waiting...
waveout warning: aout_PacketNext no buffer got next_date=18201194 ms, 7 frames to play, waiting...
waveout warning: aout_PacketNext no buffer got next_date=18234900 ms, 7 frames to play, waiting...
If set to Directx Sound (or default) I get these messages:
main warning: audio output out of sync, adjusting dates (-46504 us)
main warning: not synchronized (-46503 us), resampling
main warning: audio output out of sync, adjusting dates (-44603 us)

main warning: not synchronized (-44587 us), resampling

Is there a way that I can make VLC better than de mediaplayer?
