In this VLC version 3.0 beta, laptop video freezes for maybe 10 seconds at a time,
when acceleration is active on
//Intel HD Graphics 3000/i5-2520M/Windows 7 64 Ultimate/12 GByte Sdram//
URL linked was to a win32 vlc version.
When graphics acceleration is disabled, then .wtv will play,
at approximately 20% of the Windows Task Manager cpu display.
At that point selecting Subtitles/Subtrack/Closed Captions 1/ does display
closed captions, so far.
The font is large and does not respond to Preferences selections for Small
or Smaller.
What about the scrolling side-window to display the Closed Captions
with full copy/paste access ?
On .wtv /vlc-play/vlc-record/vlc-secondary-file-playback/
there is a slight video to audio synchronization problem
(maybe .5 sec that the video is late).
Not sure if this is video intermittently ( maybe .25 sec here and there) not playing at all,
or wandering sync within a 1 sec range.
Another feature which would be very useful using Windows
"Date Created" information, would be to implement a selectable mode
in which the actual Time-Of-Day is displayed in the VLC window,
instead of the time-displacement since the beginning of the file.
Some files could be 10 hours long, during which a specific event is known
to have occurred at a certain time of day.
Much of this type of viewing, and perhaps editing (VLC-Record), requires the user
to look at the Date Created, do some arithmetic on fingers thumbs and toes,
to derive the desired file displacement point.
