Hello guys, im a lucky user of udp IPTV and im ofcouse using VLC for it i see no other ways to stream all my channels from a windows machine perfect....... HOWEVER....
Im using the latest version 1.1.11
Im not able to use aspect ratio fully in 16:9 it always show as it was in 4:3. But when the commercials comes up it shows as it was in 16:9, and goes back to 4:3 when commercials is done.
Another note, almost everytime you try to change aspect ratio to any desired needs, vlc hangs for about 20-40 seconds you can wait or you have press the ESC button on the keyboard before you can right click within vlc gain access to all the context menu again etc again, tho the iptv streams continue and the picture is still showing normal without any interruptions.
This also applies when trying to enable/disable the scale feature under right click > video > scale.
The funny thing is i am also testing an old version of vlc 1.0.5 version. In this version theres no problem at all with scaling/aspect ratio bugging/hanging. Tho the aspect ratio works the opposit way for 16:9 to 4:3. Everytime commercials comes up it changes to 4:3 and when going back to showing the actually movie again it stays at 4:3 even tho forced it to be 16:9.
So im a totally on bare foot, are their any way i can help with debugging, and perhaps make it alot more easy for the coders? to see what actually goes wrong. I can do whatever you say, just write down step by step, what i need todo in order to give you more information if you need it.
ps. my appdata/vlc folder was not shared between 1.1.11 and 1.0.5, just to make that clear they have their own settings folder each
.
Just to make this clear, i have tested over 5 different machines, all of them with different hardware, and they all do the same thing as described.
They are running windows 7 either x64 or x86, if that helps anything.
regards wazer.
