What is suggested by no videos working but audios working

Postby northtonawanda » 08 Jan 2011 10:37

I am trying to run VLC 1.0.3 under kernlex 4.5 final under Win 98.

Numerous people running this configuration say VLC works fine, that's why I am testing with 1.0.3. However it doesn't for me. I am suspecting the problem might not be OS/kernelex related.

All audios I have tried play fine.

I have yet to see one image from a video file.

I see several symptoms. I boot my system. I click to start VLC. I immediately get a message saying "vlc just crashed. Do you want to send a report to the developers team?" This is after I have just booted my system. I say no. Then, after some disk activitiy lights, the VLC window appears.

For most file types, .flv., .wmv. .avi, when I try to open the vlc window simply disappears after I click the open button. Most of the time I do not see a vlc task. But sometimes I have seen continuing vlc tasks in task manager.

When I try to open vlc gain, I get the "vlc just crashed" message and the vlc window opens.

.mp4 files get seemingly consistently a "R6016 not enough space for thread data" C++ runtime error message. This error takes down the operating system.

Do these symptoms not add up to something?

VLC 1.0 does not work on Windows 98.

However people say VLC 1 works for them with kernelex under Win 98. I know no reason to doubt what they say.

See http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/130936- ... -45-final/
search in text for " Fixed: VLC 1.0+ (UI)" note dated 7/30/2010.

The question is what do these symptoms, including working audio but not video, say?
