VLC 1.03 movie backgrounds
Posted: Tue Dec 08, 2009 10:14 pm
I've just upgraded VLC from 0.99 to 1.03 and have noticed differences, both good and bad.
The good - looping videos now work properly, without a momentary reload of the file which used to happen and which made it unusable for a looping background. Great news!
The bad - .mov files now seem to be problematic. I can use an .mpg looping file as 'background' for song words (great for a Christingle service this evening!), but .mov files do not appear to work. I can use VLC to watch a .mov on its own (on my PC, but not on the Church's PC), but it does not play as background for songs on either machine.
Anybody have a clue what the problem would be, seeing as I can get the .mpg's to display perfectly well ?
