    Can someone please help me. I've been having issues with VLC the past few days, I tried installing older versions, newer versions, full PC clean up, nothing is helping. The problem is when I double click videos they won't always open, sometimes I have to open VLC first, and then drag the video into the player, and even then it plays a few second then the video freezes while the audio continues. The video eventually buffers to sync with the audio but its noticeably choppy. I LOVE VLC, but this is getting annoying :/

      First determine the extension of the file you want to play
      Next follow these simple steps.
      Open My Computer or Explorer.
      Click the Tools in the file menu and then click Folder Options.
      Click the File types tab.
      Adding a new file type
      Click The New button.
      Type the name of the file extension.
      Click Ok.

    I have several CD's ripped and loaded on my phone. I have album cover art attached to these CD albums in my default music player (which has other functionality problems) to make it easier to find them.
    Is it possible to attach album cover art in VLC?

    Will this convert audio files from one format to another? Specifically AAC/DRM from iTunes to MP3s (which Apple now prevents with their latest iTunes)? Like to listen to these files without having to drag around my iPad (I do not use an iPhone) say via a thumb drive in my car.

    After downloading 2.2.6 I can no longer drag and drop multiple audio books to play in sequence...after the completion of the first book the player stops....what settings do I use for the player to continue to on to the next book automatically....Also when I drag and drop an audio book to the player then hit play the player skips the first file (or chapter) and starts playing the 2nd one, you must then hit the back button start playing the first file.

    Trying to send a bug report has been made impossible because it says my email is invalid. So I guess I'm not really commenting on youtube because it's the same email I use to log into it. My bug is simple. VLC Player does not update itself if the source directory changes. A simple fix in the code. I add a new file to my media folder that VLC player is pointing to and VLC never sees it unless I close the VLC player and restart it. I consider this sloppy programming. Okay, I vented, I'm done.

      In VLC, right click on the file and click "Information". In the "Title" section type what you want VLC to display and then click "Save Metadata". I think that's what you're asking about with regards to the name of the file that VLC is displaying.

    I downloaded three times to get VLC media player work, but it's not working. Either it doesn't recognize the Destination. Or Converting works only once on my third download of this app on my other computer but it doesn't change to the File type I selected. It converted to MP4 instead FLV and I try to play the converted one, Doesn't play. Basically this App does not work for me. My computer's Window base and I downloaded window version. I am trying to change the MTS file to FLV file. Seems simple but noone knows how to do this. Can you help with your two cents. Thanks!! By the way, I try to retry and now VLC media player doesn't even response.
    Please help if you know how to get this done. Thanks!!

  • @shaunbarnett2972
    @shaunbarnett2972 5 років тому

    Brilliant and very helpful. How do you creat a media library in VLC which always remains in there even after you close VLC down and then reopen it? My music always disappears from the player every time and I always have to go back into the folder and reload it as a playlist every time, it's so so so so incredibly stuid and annoying!!! I just want my music to stay in there, in the VLC player if that makes sense. So I can just open VLC and, boom!! there's my favourite playlist ready to go. That's how it should be. But they've clearly designed it so you need a degree in software music players and 10 years experience in software development in order to play your music easily each time. It's incredible that it's deliberately been designed to be so unbelievably complex and difficult to simply maintain a permanent playlist/media library. Very frustrating!!

    @jandro737 You would need to use a bittorrent program to transfer the file. Once you download the file, you could watch that file with VLC Media Player. If you look at the videos in my channel, there is a video called "How to Use uTorrent to Download Torrents". Follow this tutorial to download the movies, and then use VLC to watch them.

    VLC players are great! You can use a VLC player to play UA-cam videos on very old hardware.
    Here's how to use a VLC player to watch UA-cam on Windows 95, 98 and ME.
    First insert the line of text below in the UA-cam Search INCLUDING the QUOTES:
    "how to watch youtube" on windows "95"
    Then, look for my video entitled:
    How To Watch UA-cam on Window 95
    Soon you can use a VLC player to watch UA-cam on an old computer while in the garage or in your basement workshop.

    WARNING - be very careful with the latest VLC media player. You are forced to download Claro internet page (as opposed to Google etc) and once on your internet system you can't remove it in the usual sense. It sticks like glue to your system. Most VLC downloads give you the OPTION to have babylon downloader etc but not in this case. Claro is malware. Either remve your VLC player for an older version or restore your system. I don't think much of those who run VLC player for this.

    Delete this video, you are contributing to the problems open source has in gaining new users. You waste most of the video on an unhelpful, overly detailed guide to install. We can assume most users know how to go to a web page and install programs. However, you completely gloss over the actual use of the program, treating it as normal to need to use the file explorer to select media files. People start to use open source, and then view unhelpful crap like this, and we wonder why adoption rates are poor. Delete this garbage video, hopefully something more helpful moves up in the rankings.
