subtitles problem

[Aiki]

ok.
VLC 0.8.6c
OS Win XP pro SP 2

Problem:
any file with subtitles freezing system.
With W2K I don't have any problem. with win xp of course - a lots.
Any help?

If your system freezes (freeze as nothing works and system hangs) then the problem is in drivers. Update videocard, soundcard and chipset drivers and it should work.

I have latest drivers.
Freezing anyway. I can watch movie using other players but no VLC.

so? any help?

Does this occur with all files/DVDs etc. with subtitles on?

You could try changing the video output module. To do this go to (in "Settings >> Preferences..."):
Video >> Output modules
And then change the "Video output module" ("Advanced options" need to be on to see it) - you could try "DirectX video output" and "OpenGL video output".

I think so.. but his happens randomly... sometimes I can play 1 movie.. sometimes.. 4-5.. anyway system hang on.
I check everything.. drivers, possibilities conflict hardware.. It's no bloody clue whats exactly happend and why system freezing when VLC play movies.
I can use differend plaer [subedit player] and nothing happed.. works fine.
any ideas?

Try resetting your Preferences and Cache for VLC. To do this, go to:
Start >> All Programs >> VideoLAN >> Quick Settings >> Reset VLC media player preferences and cache files

And see it that makes any difference.
