I am running version .8.4 on a power pc, don't know if that is a
difference or not.
Guess as long as I don't get to rammy moving an ogg file forward and
keep steadily moving it forrward it keeps going, but eventually you
stop to hear what you want to hear, and from that point going back
for anything becomes a closed option.

Mine is usually error detected, gives an option to report a bug,
supress farther errors or dismiss. Usually I just dismiss and
keep going if I can, or start over, which of course is kind of a
pain if it's one long file.
I will know and remember within a few days when I am monkeying
around with it again. But ogg files do seem to be the worse,
whereas say most mp3s and other types go backward and forward as I
want them to.

Yes and Unfortunately, I've had more error messages pop up on
long ogg files as well. But am able to start them up later and
as long as I don't get carried away moving forward through them
the file will work fine.

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.

fine though. Does anyone else experience that problem too?

Yes my Vlc does that also. Just keep the player volume down

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.
