Re: Unable to play with VLC

2018-04-02 Thread Paul Thornett
Problem solved! VLC can't cope with subtitle files containing colour
directives. I've only recently started requesting subtitles (in fact,
when v3.13 came out).

The MP4 and M4A files produced by get_iplayer play fine in VLC.  What 
advantages do you gain from using the raw .ts files instead?

Unable to play with VLC

2018-04-02 Thread Paul Thornett
Running on Windows 7, I use these options when using get_iplayer:
   tvmode=hlshd
   raw=1
   subtitles=1

With GIP 3.13 I am unable to use VLC to play any downloaded .ts file!
They all load and play fine using VideoRedo TVSuite 5.3.83.763. But
attempting to play them with VLC results in the progress bar at the
bottom of the screen flashing yellow while sweeping back and forth
across the entire progress bar, with CPU usage ranging from 1% to 25%.
