The VideoLAN Forums

Hello,
New to forums, but I've been using VLC for a while now. Recently, VLC has been crashing when playing file types. As far as I know, nothing on the system has changed. I've installed the Cyrsis demo (really that's all I can think of.)

Basically it crashes when I try to play a video file. So far I've only tested .avi and .xvid (as these are the only two formats I have handy). Included is DxDiag (figure that should answer most questions about my system) and the VLC log. There are two events in the VLC log, the first one, I seeked in the video. The second time, I just let it crash. So far it seems to be a thing with the audio, I've googled but am unable to find a solution. I updated VLC (was previously using 0.8.6c) and am still getting the same error.

When I play the .avi (Enterprise - Broken Bow), a command line comes up:

Compiler did not align stack variables. Libavcodec has been miscomplied and may be very slow or crash. This is not a bug in libavcodec, but in the compiler. Do not report crashes to FFmpeg developers.
No accelerated IMDCT transform found

Please help!

Reset preferences and cache.

Hi j-b, it seems to have fixed VLC crashing, but I still get that complier error. Is that something that I can just ignore?

I kno suggestions are to ignore this error and the video and audio plays fine,,
But because of this error I am not able to access other functionalities for th video such as fetching t length and time of video at runtime..
So could you help me resolve this error..

No accelerated IMDCT transform found shouldn't matter to

access other functionalities for th video such as fetching t length and time of video at runtime..
