I tried out the 200506110352 build on Mac OS X 10.4.1, and although the thin green line is now gone, there seems to be a problem with DiVX4 movies where the thin green line appears on 0.8.1 version of vlc. For movies where the thin green line appears in the 0.8.1 version of vlc, the movie now plays distorted with a diagonal line going through the movie.The green line is fixed.Mac OS X 10.4.1:
The thin green (opengl?) line that surrounds all playing video files is still present on OS X 10.4.1.
`coreaudio' errors pop-up from time to time when trying to play mp3 files: seems sporadic, odd.
intermittent crashes: see above posts.
The small errors are a known problem. I'm looking into that.
Search the damn forum before asking the same question for the 100th time ! VLC won't be able to read WMV3 as long as no open source decoder exists. That will be available once the VC1 (VC9 ... whatever) video codec format is made public.(main: no suitable decoder module for fourcc `WMV3'.
VLC probably does not support this sound or video format.)
Panther 10.3.9
only audio , no visual , still cant watch wmv3......
That was fixed after test2-Green line is here in test2 under 10.3 (i didn't try the last nightly build)
use a 0.8.2 nightly. should be fixed.I am using OS 10.3.9, and VLC 0.8.1 works fine, except when I attempt to play dvds with it. The sound automatically switches to a digital output in my preferences (and since I don't have external speakers) I totally loose sound. I can switch it back after a while, and I can still read other files using VLC 0.8.1. The only problem is trying to read dvd's with it, that's all. Any ideas on how to make it work, without having to download the new beta version? (I tried and it crashed constantly.)
Thanks,

Can you give us a hint, where we can find such a file, so we can have a look at it? If you don't know a location, feel free to upload a sample to <ftp://ftp.videolan.org/incoming/> and paste the name of the file here.Well, I love VLC, since its a clean and easy to handle player, but it still doesnt support the new h264 encodes that well. Only the audio plays and the debug reports "header missing" even though the file works on other players...
This seems to be the new problem with divx5 wich appeared after 21/5 nightlies (for me, at least ). Strange, as the file i was having troubles with, was ok again with the first test2 build.I just wanted to confirm the "late picture" problem reported earlier in this thread and elsewhere. The problem only happens with the test builds, so it's really a regression. 0.8.0 and 0.8.1 do not have the same issue.
To recap: with mpeg4 video (specifically DX50 fourcc), frames with lots of motion are skipped, causing visible pauses in the output. This does not appear to be a streaming problem, as the content is from a local file. Nor does it appear to be a CPU problem: the test machine was not doing anything else and task manager shows less than 10% CPU usage.
Win2kSp4, vlc 0.8.2-test2
P.S. I'm amazed at how good the resource utilization is in VLC. Keep up the good work.
