Hi. I haven't used VLC as much as some of you guys. But I have this
behavior with ogg vorbis. I've used vlc to play mp3 and video files,
and they seem to be able to rewind correctly. I've just had rewind
problems with ogg files.

Hi. I've been using VLC too for a couple hours and I am only finding
one problem. When I want to rewind a track with command option left
arrow it fast forwards on me but the fast forwart command works just
fine though. Does anyone else experience that problem too?

Yes my Vlc does that also. Just keep the player volume down a little
and crank up the actual computer volume if you're wantin to jam!.

It seems quite good. You need to be careful though and not turn up
the volume too high on the player as it distorts but then that's
nothing to worry about. Is anyone else having that? I guess Itunes
does things a bit differently in that it has a max volume level
that isn't quite in the red so to speak.

Hi:
I'm not Dane but the ftp site is ftp://videolan.org. You then
want to go to public, vlc and latest. I think the latest is from
April this year.
It's a very good program, been using it for well over a year.

Subject: Vlc, quite an impressive little media player
Ok, since I've had my Imac I've been venturing to try software
packages which didn't work too well on my Power PC, one of these
is the VLC Media Player, the Intel build seems to work far
better than did the Power PC build. The reason I raise the
subject of VLC is because I'm sure other list members use it
and also because it has a very similar feel to use to Winamp,
one of our list members was commenting on this a few weeks ago
when he talked about the thundermental differences between the
way Itunes and Winamp work.
As we all know, Itunes is based round a library of content
whereas Winamp and VLC are based on playlists, to further
illustrate the point if you select all the songs in a folder,
have VLC set as your default media player and then press say
command-down arrow to open the selection, then all files are
played with VLC and you can save a playlist reflecting the
songs you selected to play, no files are moved or copied
anywhere and you put the playlist where you want it so that's
just plain and simple.
The other great reason people may wish to try VLC is the
amazing quality of audio output, I don't know what decoders
Itunes use but it sounds God-Damn awful when compared to VLC.
There are still a lot of things I don't understand about this
software but I'm exploring and discovering, enjoying every
minute of what I see or perhaps that should be what I hear
<smile>.
If anyone has anything to add to this then I' be interested to
hear what they have to say.
