VLC locking up after unpausing

Hello,

I work at a Community College and our English Professors have had issues with playing back DVD's.
I went over to one of the machines and tested one of the DVD's.

Our devices are currently running Windows 10 LTSC 21H2. We have hardware acceleration turned off.

We can get the DVD to load, use menu operation, and play (either from the beginning or going to a specific scene). The issue happens when the instructor pauses the video for 15-30 seconds and then un-pauses it to continue the scene. The video will start to play again for about 1-3 seconds then freezes (no sound either). I have to force quit the application. I attempted to pull Event Viewer logs, but it never gave any in depth information of what caused the crash.

I did run turn on the File Logger and had the Messages tab open with Verbosity on 2 (debug). Below is what I pulled:

Code: Select all

Any ideas what is doing this (or how to fix this)?

Note: I did find a note that the freezing was fixed in VLC 4.0, but I also tried installing a recent VLC 4.0 nightly version and it was exhibiting the same issue with it.

Any update? Is this a known issue with your product?

So I just found this post in the GitLab (https://code.videolan.org/videolan/vlc/-/issues/28467) but that is not the case. I have tried a very recent nightly build of VLC 4.0 and that did not fix the issue.

I'd file a report in GitLab, however I do not have access to do so.
