Trouble with some MKV files

[atsigns]

I've had some issues with my VLC 2.0.5 recently.

There are some MKV files that will not play correctly. As soon as the video starts playing, the time code has a blue background and the sound will be going, but the video skips, or totally freezes mostly. This has happened with a few other file types, but I cannot remember which exactly right now.

This was also happening with a movie I was just trying to watch.

Do you use GPU decoding? If yes try deactivate it, save and restart vlc. If it fixes the problem you may have driver issue.

Else stop the playback (with the stop button) open tools->Messages set verbosity to 2, click play again and give us the full logs.

The GPU thing did not help.

I am guessing you want me to just post the log, and not some sort of link to it, so here it is. I hope you can make sense of it, I certainly can't. It may also be worth noting that this error often causes VLC to freeze. I can close the window, but I have to go into Task Manager to actually shut vlc.exe down.

NOTE: This line " unknown seekhead reference at" repeated hundreds, if not thousands of times. My original post was not accepted because of "Your message contains 306561 characters. The maximum number of allowed characters is 60000." So I deleted a lot of them so that I could post this.

You can use tools like pastebin to copy the whole logs.
So you say that with GPU decoding you still have lags? but no "main warning: picture is too late to be displayed" message?
Can you show the logs when you enable the GPU decoding?

Are you sure your file is ok? If yes... well can you provide a sample of it?

I am positive that the file is okay. I was at work the other day and I played it there on VLC and it ran beautifully, same version of VLC. I would post a short clip of it, but I have no clue how to trim down an .MKV file.

I found this Pastebin website, so I will post logs with that with GPU on, and off.

Here is the log with GPU accelerated decoding on.

http://pastebin.com/aGzufxde

I turned GPU off, saved and closed the program, here is the next log.

http://pastebin.com/eW8XZK94

In my eyes, there is no difference between attempting to play this movie with GPU on or off. Both times, I waited 5-10 seconds after opening the movie till I stopped it, for both the VLC screen had only JUST changed to the actual movie, it was "Not Responding" before that.

I'll try to find one of the other files that I have that had a similar issue if that will help, I don't know if it was .mkv or something else off the top of my head though.

[TypX]

Ok. I'd say that it's a bug in vlc then and I'll need a sample to work on it. You can create a bug ticket on http://trac.videolan.org/vlc and upload a sample in http://streams.videolan.org/upload

[atsigns]

Okay, I'd be happy to, but like I said before, I have no idea how to trim down an mkv file, so I don't know how to upload a sample of the movie.

[TypX]

I don't know windows tools so I can't decently recommend one but any file trimming program will do the trick. The first 40-50 MB should be enough to try to reproduce.

[atsigns]

Alright, I figured out how to trim the file. I created a ticket and posted a video clip on that site with the ticket number attached to it.

Thanks.
