GOOD!+5!

Perfect for me, plays nearly everything without converting anything. Can't beat the price either. Thanks!

It's simple. Inexpensive. It works well. It plays evreything I throw at it. There's nothing not to like.

Unlike another product that was a true pain in the butt. I'm not going to name names, but you know who you are, Mud Hut Software.

I just love this player. It plays just about anything without problems.
No need to install extra libraries, plugins, ..

Incredible this is free ! I would gladly pay for it.

Side-Note : After playing a file with a digital audio track,
VLC resets the audio volume to zero which is probably a good thing (safety), and there is no need to restart or relaunch anything, just use the volume-slider :)

hmmmmmm, I see a big bug over there! ;-)
The ppc version doesn't read .ts anymore!!! (no image at all)
As I use VLC mainly for playing those files, I'm stuck to 1.1.9... :-(

VLC 1.1.8, PPC, OSX.5.8: If I change "Prefs >Hotkeys >LongJumpBackwards:alt-sft-cmd-lft" to "LongJumpBackwards:c" and click "Save", then this shortcut "c" does not work. Instead, the shortcut "Prefs >Hotkeys >LongJumpBackwards:alt-sft-cmd-lft" reappears in the list. BIG BUG! And: If I change "Prefs >Hotkeys >(*) Basic" to "Prefs >Hotkeys >(*) All", then the hotkey list shows popup menus which cannot be clicked/changed. Why?

I encountered a small (but annoying) issue on 1.1.8, on both 64-bit and 32-bit modes. When I skip some .mkv videos, it takes some time to hear the sound again. Also, like other users have noted, quitting the app takes quite a few seconds (though this has been going for quite a few revisions I think). I also experienced some more "Force Quits" than the usual ones. Is there an "official" VideoLAN place where I can report those?

A consistent problem I've had with VLC is that it freezes when using the progress bar to skip forward with large m2ts files (ripped from Blu-Ray). On rare occasions playback will resume after a minute or two, but VLC seems to have trouble locating the new playback point and resuming playback. There may be settings that could be adjusted within the advanced Preferences, but they're a bit daunting for a novice like myself.

Just to be sure this is a VLC quirk, I opened the same m2ts file with Movist and it was able to smoothly jump to whatever playback point I selected. Of course, it won't play the embedded subtitles, so there's a tradeoff.

Anyone have any ideas and/or a solution? Thanks! Tom

I don't know what's up with VLC lately -- it chews through free memory like crazy. When VLC is running, after just a couple of hours, my system slows to a crawl and even after I turn VLC off, it never releases all of the memory it gobbled up. The only solution is to reboot my computer.

I hope the devs can fix this issue soon because a quick google search shows I'm not the only one having this problem.
