The VideoLAN Forums

I have 2 cameras coming into a video mixer then into the Video Card and displayed/output by VLC. The "preview mode" on the mixer shows different display positioning than VLC (which matches what goes out). Is there a way to adjust VLC's settings for this, and if so, how?

Thanks,

Bump ^

Does this look like my issue?

I am attempting to create an MP4, but I would think the display would be normal with this issue only the MP4 would not show some of the screen. The display in the GUI shows up missing the lower 1/3 of the screen (and actually, it does this whether I'm creating a file output or not).

Any help?

Try going back to 0.8.5. As of last night I'm also encountering transcoding/copying issues in 0.8.6-bugfix which is the latest revision of VLC. These issues would effect 80 to 90% of streaming within VLC used as a server.

You are the third or so person to encounter MP4 issues that also didn't occur in 0.8.5

BTW FLV files may not function well in 0.8.5

Aloha DJ and THANKS!!!! I'll give it a shot.

This wasn't the issue. I'm using 0.8.5 of the software. Any other suggestions?

Thanks Again,

Got to admit the

viewtopic.php?t=30045

does sound similar. Have you tried this?

I don't think that this is the issue because it's not in the MP4 file that I find the problem, it's in the display itself. I'm running into too many problems previous to this that I'm not even looking at the resultant file yet (when I create one). When I nab the camera's signal with the ATI software, I get a full display (or when I look at it on the preview screen from the Videonics MX-1). But when I bring the same signal into VLC, about 1/3 of the screen (bottom part) gets chopped off. Is it possible that the resolution of the camera is set differently in the different softwares, and if so, can I change the resolution in VLC. I've been around preferences a lot, but get overwhelmed with all of the settings (I'm just a geek - and a wannabe video geek).

Thanks,
