One day it worked fine, and then the next, it didn't. I didn't update anything or change any settings. My biggest issue is that this started happening, all of a sudden. The codec of the file i attached is MPEG audio layer 1/2 mpga.
My laptop where the issue started 2 or so years ago that I just sort of left for dead and just did recordings from my PC. My PC where the issue just started happening. I have completely uninstalled it, and then installed the most up to date version. I looked for the problem and solution, and tried a handful of things, but nothing worked. I am following the reporting bug wiki page as best I can. If you just let it play, or even skip ahead, you can see it not work, and then towards the end, actually work fine. It is longer, so you can see the audio, video issue. I am also including a file from Colbert that shows what the output file comes out. One from my laptop, VLC 2.2.6, and then another from my laptop after going to VLC 2.2.8. I am attaching a file that I would play in VLC, then also 3 output files. I downloaded the 2.2.8, and still have the same issue. My laptop has 2.2.6 Umbrella, but when I go to check for updates, it says that I have the most up to date. The issue with my PC.I have 2.2.8 Weatherwax. The recorded output file is wrong in the same manner on every one. So once this started happening, every recorded file is like this. VLC either records with no problems, or every recording is bad. But I don't even know if there is another player that I could make recordings of a recording. (I looked for other media players that offer the ability to make recordings, and I can't find any. I have tried playing the files in windows media player and other media players, and the issue is the same.so it has to do with the recording of the file using VLC. On these recordings that come out wrong, there is no time. Usually if its a 30 second file, I can see that it's 30 seconds. When I play files that have this issue, on the shorter ones, the length of the video doesn't show up when I play the file in VLC. Some are 30 seconds long, others may be 2 to 3 minutes long.
I usually have about 10 or so clips from a 60 minute video that I want to keep. I can't even find where it is addressed anywhere. So, I have searched this forum, and googled the heck out of it the last few days, and I can't seem to find a resolution to this particular problem. When I saw that the same thing started happening on my PC, I recognized the problem bc I had had it before on my laptop. I tried 2 years ago to fix the issue with VLC on my laptop, but I could not find a solution. I used to use VLC the same way on both my laptop AND my PC.but for some reason I had this same recording output problem on my laptop about 2 years ago and couldn't make good recordings, so I could only get recordings on my PC. I really just hear the audio and then the file stops. On a 30 second file, there simply isn't enough time to go through the just audio, then just video, then both. I have just not been able to both see and hear the first 30 seconds of the clip. On longer clips of 2-3 minutes, there is enough "catch up" time for the file to go from just audio, then just video, then about 30 to 40 seconds in, both the audio and video appear and the file works fine. Now, when I go to play the newly created 30 second clip, the beginning 5 to 10 seconds is just audio, no video.and then the video shows up, but there is no audio. I have been using VLC this way for years and it works great.īut, within the last month, all of a sudden, when I go to record that 30 second clip, the output doesn't work how it should. So a new file with just the 30 seconds I want is created, and I can delete the 60 minute file bc I only want those 30 seconds. When I am playing a, let's say, 60 minute video file, and I want to keep just 30 seconds of it, I click the Red Record button to keep just the part I want.
