Re: Why wont these streams play in VLC player

The first one is playing for me with VLC 3.0.18.
The two other ones have discontinuity troubles so any player I've tried have troubles playing them:

Code: Select all

Audio device underrun detected. Invalid audio PTS: 0.170667 -> 78017.621333 Audio device underrun detected.

From VLC log:

Code: Select all

main warning: playback too late (61000): up-sampling main warning: buffer too late (-141000 us): dropped main debug: playback too late (58667): flushing buffers main warning: buffer too late (-161000 us): dropped main warning: buffer too late (-75667 us): dropped main debug: inserting 319 zeroes main error: ES_OUT_SET_(GROUP_)PCR is called too late (pts_delay increased to 1000 ms) main debug: ES_OUT_RESET_PCR called main debug: Buffering 0% gnutls error: The TLS connection was non-properly terminated.

You're right, these streams are playing fine with dedicated audio players like AIMP or foobar2000.
That said, the Motherearth stream is using about 600 KB/s bandwidth. This is just insane and useless, but make sure your connection can handle it.

You should create a new report ticket on the VLC issues tracker with your above report, the links to the streams and the link to this thread:
https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc/-/issues

If possible, because of this:

Let's hope someone who still has access to the bugs reports will create a new issue. Fingers crossed.
