VLC iPad - Audio but no video

[TheNinthPlayer]

I've tried a few different files in various formats and get the same results every time. I get Audio but no Video. The selection screen (Title Screen, Main Screen, whatever) does show a frame from the video though. Any ideas?

Do you have iOS 4.2 beta?

[TheNinthPlayer]

Affirmative. Compatability issue? If so I'll update this thread on the issue after beta 2 is released, which might be today if they follow previous beta milestones.

Just FYI: Beta 2 was just released. I updated my iPad and tested the VLC player but I got the same results, audio w/ no video.

I can confirm I get the same issue on my ipad running 4.2 beta 2

Same issues here... multiple formats... Audio no video on 4.2 beta.

Thanks for the hard work everyone!!

Just an update:

I discovered that AirVideo is suffering from the same 4.2 beta issue. Audio but no Video. There's not much detail on there forums, but from what I read they have submitted a fix to apple for approval.

It's possible that this issue may fix itself as 4.2 exits beta but my guess is that Apple made some change to the video API in 4.2.

Are any of the developers able to confirm if an updated iPad app has been submitted to Apple to work with the iOS betas yet? I've just set off travelling for a couple of months with loads of films to watch and just upgraded to 4.2 beta 2! Not going to be fun trying to downgrade back to 3.2 on the road!

Any info on rough timelines would be appreciated.

I second this: I could *really* use this update before heading out on the road again next week, as I use my iPad primarily for videos on planes Tell me where to PayPal the $ and I will buy the dev team a stack of beers!

The quick fix is to revert to a non beta iOS

We have submitted a new VLC that fixes the video issue in iOS beta 2.

video now works on iPad with the new beta 3 iOS, a little choppy but working. wonder if the new release will solve that problem also.

I am getting smooth audio and video in the iPad 4.2 Beta 3 release so far....
