The VideoLAN Forums

Hello.

I currently have a problem affecting version 0.9.4 and 0.9.6.
When trying to play an .ts (transport stream) file like my tv recording software (dvbviewer) creates, only versions 0.9.4 and 0.9.6 cannot play this file.
They just display the standard slider bar at bottom which moves but they don't display any video.
I have used the default settings and also tried to choose another video output module.
My video card drivers are up-to-date.

Here some data and screenshots:

here is the info that dvbviewer writes:
http://nopaste.php-quake.net/84354

here is the info MediaInfo gets:

I hope somebody knows a solution
Thanks anyway.
P.S. The file is only taken as an example. I can also provide you a small .ts file if you need.

Fill a bug.

Could you provide a short .ts sample file that shows this issue?

Wow... curiously the problem doesnt exist anymore...
I just reinstalled 0.9.6 to pre-check the .ts files but then it worked...
(This was not the first time i reinstalled vlc, even previous not-working versions work)
I don't know why it works now but at least it works

//Edit: Ok i think i spotted the problem.
When there exist a textfile which is structured like this http://nopaste.php-quake.net/84354 and has the same name as the .ts file vlc won't play the .ts
Temporary fix: disable automatic subtitle recognition

Thanks for the tip. However this is stupid feature since DVBViewer creates txt info files with the same name and VLC can't handel it. (Or 0.9.x can't there is no problem with 0.8.6)
