FreeboxTV problem

Postby steph57 » 15 Jul 2011 19:45

Hello guys,

I've some problem with freeboxtv and MacBook...

I've 2 macbook, first one is 5 years old and second one is new (bought this month)... My problem is with the "old" macbook. I tried VLC 1.1.10 and no picture ! So after many visits on many forums talking about the problem I tried an older version (0.9)... with this last one I can watch TV but when I will pause the movie (and also use timeshifting) the pause signal appears but playing continue...

Is someone an idea and maybe a solution...

I'm despite :(

Try updating to 1.1.10.1 (via the VLC menu), since there was a fix for a Freebox issue.
Providing logs, messages, configuration info (VLC, OS, Hardware) and a clear explanation of the issue always helps the problem solvers help you, even if they don't end up solving the issue. Just think what you would need if you were solving someone else's problem. Additional: Always looking for eager and capable MacOS X developers to join the VLC team - for more information see here.

i tried update with 1.1.10.1 and doesn't work... in fact when i select a channel usually a new window must open but nothing happend. vlc seems to be in playing mode but no window with channel inside, no sound, nothing...

the exact thing i dont understand is why on my new macbook i dont have any problem and why on the older (with same OS version) it doesn't work... the only difference is that my new mac is factory installed with original install dvd and my old one is installed with an universal install dvd (because i'm technical apple center engineer so i can access some ressources) ;)

i already sent 2 mail at vlc technical support but no answer...

1.1.11 should fix the issue.
