I have got a .m3u playlist with some .mkv files. when one of the files ends, the media player crashes and I can't switch to the next or previous file.
anyone got an idea?

So if you open MKV file independently it doesn't cause a crash?

No, only if I open a playlist and one track ends. All commands are being accepted excepting "Next/Previous Track" and "Play,Pause"...
I can open the preferences, open a new medium but the screen does not change at all!

I even reinstalled my OS and it still does not work. But this problem only occurs with .mkv files.

some MKV files won't end properly.

Thanks, that's just my problem but can it be fixed or do I have to wait for a new version?

I have samekind problem with a new version a VLC. It´s crash when i try play *.xspf -playlist, i´ve made a *.m3u -version of list, but it´s never worked!previous (*.xspf -playlist) version of list works sometimes (er.. manytimes.. once before is had problem get it work) now it´s just wont work.. VLC crash! CRAAAAASH BOOOOM!


sry, just got made a new good playlist and now it wont work... hmp.

Well I didn't really solve the problem now but I got half of a solution. My VLC only crashes at the very end of every file so I just forward it seconds before it ends
Of course I still wouldn't say no to a real solution

My solution; Maybe it´s why its crash now very well is just because im OC´d E7400 a little bit (2,8->4,1 and going upper, i don´t care temps anymore because my voltage modded Ati 3850 goes somewhere 90+ playing xD ati´s has TWO coolers overlap and set 100%...

Real solution for now: I just start playing some song and then load crashing playlist and it´s start like a nothing happened ever.

Edit: Itself playlist if its on (showing playilist) its crash like a normal, must open some song without seeing playlist (and no mixing list) then its open normal.

I have WinXP and VLC 1.0.1 and it is crashing every time i try to use playlist thah has folowing data:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<playlist version="1" xmlns="http://xspf.org/ns/0/" xmlns:vlc="http://www.videolan.org/vlc/playlist/ns/0/">

Thanks

dostoic: no crash in here.

Hello,
Where did you get the names of the options beeing available for the xspf-playlist? I would like to set up a playlist with videos that have individual settings for cropping and aspect ratio. Do you knw if/how that works?
Thank you,
Michael
