Hey just wondering if anyone knows of this bug and how to fix it? It only happens with some FLV files.

Thanks!

Changing video output module helps?

In short, in VLC's preferences, under the "Video" settings, change the output to "Direct3D Video Output", or in older versions, "DirectX 3D Video Output". And if that doesn't work, try each other output setting until you find one that works. "Windows GDI Video Output" is what did it for me. And stop (don't pause) the video while changing the setting, or it won't take effect.
