Hello everyone,

My 3.0.4 can't keep audio running, when I watch .VOB-files.

Format .mp4's work well.

I opened the VLC Messages window, and it produced over 1200 pages of error messages in only a few seconds.

What's going on here? What can I do to fix it?

It looks like this, if I rewind the film a step or two, audio returns, and then goes away again within a minute:
