The VideoLAN Forums

I just downloaded 1.1.9 and I see that with certain videos, the frame-by-frame function doesn't work. I works fine with original .flv files, but with M2TS files downloaded to my HD from the Hauppauge 1212 PVR device, the frame-by-frame doesn't work, nor does it work with those files after they have been converted to .wmv. Its there any tweaking I can do to fix this? Thanks!

It won't work with all container formats. It should work with some WMV videos, so you might want to try tool called asfbin and fix those files with it.

I downloaded the asfbin and the Microsoft visual package, but when I click to open a folder that has video files using asfbin, nothing happens. For some reason, asfbin won't get me to the actual individual video files I want it to fix. Thanks.

I found that converting a video file to an .flv file through a program called AVS4YOU enables the VLC player to properly function in the frame-by-frame mode. Thanks.
