• Cannot set the default value to all files video VLC media player.

  Windows media player and others fail microsoft products support the vlc media player file extension ".mkv" plays however each video I ever want to watch and I have NEVER downloaded a codec package. It is a FAR superior program and way easier to use.  the question I have is that when I try to set it on the media player by default it will not accept as a program.  I can browse programs open my .mkv film, find vlc and click on it to use it to open my file and nothing happens. the only way I am able to make this film to play is to open vlc media player and select media play in the drop-down menu inside the vlc player.

  I've updated the VLC media player a dozen times in the last week or two, but it continues to not work, with a message from Firefox to come saying "Web PluginVLC Web Plugin 2.1.3 vulnerable 2.1.3.0 VLC media player update now". All other plugins seem to now, Firefox said recently that many of them had recently updated and all the others worked.

• VLC Media Player WARNING

  Note that this is a Legacy FAQ and contains information that is more current. See the update below for the current situation.

  Dell technical support is to deny service guarantee for speaker damage if the popular VLC Media Player is installed on a Dell laptop. Also, we got a report that the service was rejected because a KMPlayer is installed on a laptop. The guarantee remains valid on the other parts of the laptop.

  VLC has a function that can make the sound seems stronger than other players. VLC does this by using a process that creates a hard clipping (see below in this thread for explanation) which can damage the small speakers. Dell has tested VLC and checked the speakers may be damaged after several hours of use of VLC. I think that HP (Hewlett Packard) also asserts that VLC damage are not covered by the warranty.

  If you choose to use the VLC Player, it is suggested that you do not set the volume to 100% to avoid potential damage to the speakers. If you contact Technical Support about a problem of speaker, it is suggested that you have not installed the player.

  If you have already been rejected warranty service for a speaker only problem because you have the VLC Player, please see the next post which is marked "verified the answer." Send DELL - Terry B a private message. The way to do is to click on his link, which is its name in blue letters. This will take you to their profile page where you can click 'Send private message' or 'add as friend '.

  LAST UPDATED 27/01/2016

  From 03/03/2014 exclusion is no longer applied to the models that have Windows 8 or 8.1. Exclusion still applied to systems of Windows 7 that did not have the latest audio driver and BIOS installed.
  

  The latest version of VLC Media Player audio boosts only 125%, not the 200-400% of earlier versions, so the question is perhaps moot now anyway. (Note that there is still a risk if you use a software to increase the volume of more than 100%. Dell recommends not to go more than 90 %.)
  

  Great post Jimco

  If someone has been denied assistance by technical support when troubleshooting only executed has been to find VLC player installed please feel free to private message me. Just click on the link in my signature or my portrait and then click Start conversation.  In your message, please include your contact information, serial number of the laptop and any number of cases that support can be offered. I'll be happy to continue the investigation.

  For those of you who have requested official documentation of Dell on the Please topic, take a look at the following link.

  Problem with the volume while using VLC media player

  When you use VLC media player, the volume can be increased to maximum power. Finally, it distorts the speaker output. If audio/video playback is made permanently using VLC with volume max (100%) over a period of time, then even if the volume is kept at a lower level sound would be distorted. This distortion is permanent.

  Why does this happen?

  Some audio applications like VLC player will allow high power output per speaker, about 200 to 400% of the original audio production. In this case, excessive use can damage the speaker.

  What is the resolution?

  If you use VLC or any other software amplification, ensure that the built-in audio output is set to 90% and the output volume of the software of the amplification is set to 95%

• Problem VLC media player - option of the context menu "add to vlc media player playlist" disappear in the selection of multiple files.

  OK, here's my problem. I installed VLC. It works very well. I have 'Add to playlist in vlc meadia player' on the pop-up menu file.

  PROBLEM: If I select more than 16 files and then "Add to vlc meadia Player playlist" disappear from the file context menu.

  ANNOYING: This stupid Windows Media Player is still there.

  QUESTION: Why vlc disappear from the file context menu if I select more then 16 files but wmp doesn't?  Is M$ trying to force people to use WMP?

  I also did my OWN program and he added in the context menu, and I discovered that my OWN program has also 16 files limit.

  Why windows deletes non MS program context menu, if I select more than 16 files? How can I solve this problem? I want to have my custom context menu program, even if I select more than 16 files.

  How to fix this?

• Toshiba 50L7335DF: problems to play 1080 p mkv files using media player

  Hello

  _The facts_
  I have problems to read files mkv (H264, AC3 5.1) 1080 p via the media player on a USB drive (USB is formatted NTFS)

  The video begins and is OK for a few seconds/minutes, and then it becomes jerky.
  (the subtitles were on)

  I also found that the menus are generally very slow on this TV...

  I also had some problems with subtitles:
  -they were not displayed on a single video (tested OK with VLC on my laptop ubuntu)
  - and on the other, they showed too fast, I want to say it have been synchronized, but they disappeared fast after displayed.
  -one this second video, I got a few square character displayed at the beginning of some lines (maybe an encoding problem, I'll try to understand by myself)
  - And finally, the submarines are truncated at the beginning and at the end of some very long sentences on a single line.

  _So questions: _
  -Is powerful enough to manage movies mkv 1080 p TV?
  N ' matter what official NTFS support soon? (and don't tell me to FAT32... I know that the limitation of 4 GB, which is sad on 1080 p HD mkv...)
  -No recommendation for the encoding format presentations?
  -How to solve garbled subtitles?
  -There's a subtitle settings (font, size, duration, time)?

  Y at - it an update of the firmware fix fo preparation menus speed or one of these superior facts?

  Thanks ;)
