ES_OUT_SET_(GROUP_)PCR is called too late

Postby luciel » 08 Jan 2020 06:22

  • VLC version 3.0.8 Vetinari (3.0.8-0-gf350b6b5a7)
  • Platform: Windows 10 Pro vers. 10.0.18362 Build 18362
  • Scenario: Playing audio file over wired local network, from a NAS hosting a SMB service.
  • Formats tested: mp3 and FLAC (FLAC example in log).
  • Error received:

    Code: Select all

    main error: ES_OUT_SET_(GROUP_)PCR is called too late (pts_delay increased to <n> ms)
  • Pastebin Logfile:

    Code: Select all

    https://pastebin.com/3BBDWEg6
  • Effect: Stuttering and rebuffering every couple of seconds making listening to audio unreasonable.

    NB,
  • Video, even 1080p seems to play fine off of the same SMB share (with the same VLC version).
  • Other media players playback the files flawlessly.
  • The error was reproducible in the Win64 vlc-3.0.9-20200107-0513 nightly build.
  • The error was not reproducible in the vlc-4.0.0-20200107-0832 nightly build - in fact playing back flawlessly.

I have the same problem via WLAN. Is there already a solution available?

There were no problems with older versions - what causes the error in 3.xx versions? Problem can be reproduced on other notebooks.
