I've been trying a lot of things to get the screen dump option to work, and it actually did for a couple of files. Automatic screen dumps in predefined folders and they were awesome! But then I tried a 16:9 file and set the recording ratio to 1 instead of 3, after which the VLC Player gave an error message and I had to reset the preferences and reinstall. Now it's back to the start again: I can't seem to get the screen shots right.
When I reset all preferences and only put --nooverlay in the commandline before the video file location, I get error messages like this:
Code: Select all
main error: no suitable access module for `--nooverlay'
main warning: output date isn't PTS date, requesting resampling (41476)
main warning: audio drift is too big (123174), dropping buffer
main debug: control type=1
main warning: timing screwed, stopping resampling
main warning: buffer is 83078 late, triggering upsampling
main warning: output date isn't PTS date, requesting resampling (40172)
When I set a folder to save the screen dumps in, set video output to images & no video I got this error message:
Code: Select all
main error: no suitable access module for `--nooverlay'
main warning: output date isn't PTS date, requesting resampling (40255)
I also tried this with other files and they gave even more error messages.
Anyone, please help me out and tell me how I need to configure the program to make screen dumps
especially the automatic screen dumps per file every ... frames were great and I'd also love to be able to take one of more screen shots on my own
I'm running the newest VLC version on a PIII with Windows 2000; my pc has about 9.7 GB free disk space and 512 MB memory.
PS. I think it's kind of funny that while playing or pausing a video in VLC, the Windows background / menu / other programs running at the same change colors at the same time the videos do. Looks cool but it's not always possible to read texts while putting the video to a halt for a short while.
, but please, anyone, help me out here
