Problem with HD wmv video files

[VLC_help]

http://www.highdefinitionstudio.com/vid ... ffects.zip talking about this one,
If you watch 1080p video on full screen, then yes, you can't move the slider exactly where you want it to be, because you can only jump to keyframes and slider has more empty between those keyframes because video is short.That video has total 7 keyframes (frames: 0, 5, 101, 105, 106, 108, 204, 300) so those frames are only points were you can navigate directly.

What do you suggest to solve my problem ?

[VLC_help]

Use more keyframes (I-frames) when encoding.

[ashanta]

Could you tell me more ? I don't know what it is.

How to do it ? I've the habit of using VLC, only for watch videos.

[VLC_help]

If you don't create those videos by yourself, there is really nothing you can do (well you could always create better decoders and demuxers, but with HD video, there would still be issue with lag, because instead of 1 frame you would have to decode for example 100 frames and the playback would stall totally until every frame is decoded).

icebob: you have tried nightlies?
http://nightlies.videolan.org/

[ashanta]

How you can explain that you could view these videos without any problems with the same version I'm running ?

[icebob]

I downloaded this nightly version http://nightlies.videolan.org/build/win ... 0817-0004/
I played same video with player, but about 15-20 minutes later the player closed and exit without any error

I tried for 3-4 timer, but same issue.

I have played http://www.gametrailers.com/download/35 ... 3_h264.wmv now 20 times at repeat with 0.8.6i, no crash. And those random crashes are hard to debug. Devs prefer crashes that can be easily repeated.

[icebob]

I know, just I tried it 3 different computer and all player crashed. I thought this problems will also occur at other people...

VLC_help, don't forget my last question I really need your answer, thanks

[VLC_help]

What problems you mean? The I frame thing is same for all.
