Hello everyone,
Could someone give me step by step instructions on how to enable WASAPI on VLC?
All I found is this: https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.ph ... +to+wasapi
And unfortunately I did not understand half of it.
Thanks in advance!

Re: How do I enable WASAPI?
I am sorry if this question is frustrating you, but all information I found in the forums drive towards activation of plugins which I do not understand how to implement or how they come into play.
As for "Preferences -> Audio" I see no relevant options indicating WASAPI or "Windows Audio Session API". Unless you mean "Windows Multimedia Device output"?
If "Windows Multimedia Device output" is WASAPI, then I need to report that it returns nothing but distortion and inaudible, unidentifiable sounds - while both WASAPI and ASIO work fine in other players in 1 - 10ms & 16 / 24 / 32bit.
If this is not it, which one is it?

It is, and it is broken, indeed.
