ffmpeg playback issue

Hi,

Can one of the programmers have a look at whats going on with ffmpeg playback… Or failure of playback with each new release. Currently on 4.3.1.

Originally from. viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2338&start=20#p12708

TRACE was set in the debug. I had to copy ffmpeg from version 4.1.3 for playback to work again.

This is on Mac OS X 10.8.5.

I also don't use Java or have it installed if its any use.

Thanks.

Could you try the latest 4.4.0 version and if it still doesn't work without copying ffmpeg again please post

Is that due for release soon? As 4.3.1 is the only available for download.

Had to drop in 4.1.3 ffmpeg to get it to play.

CappySpectrum, i'm still looking at the differences between the two versions of ffmpeg to isolate this issue. We moved from ffmpeg g7cf1f0f in 4.1.1 which is the version you keep moving back into our releases that works, to 20141014 in 4.2.0 which is the version that doesn't (also it's been updated since 4.2.0 but none of those work if i'm assuming that correctly). I'm seeing if anyone has reported a bug thats related to the issue your seeing

Ok CappySpectrum, looks as though i have to compile ffmpeg myself. I will work on it this weekend and hopefully have a working version for you to test for me soon.

CappySpectrum,
Could you please test this version to see if ffmpeg works for you. I only had time to build a Java 8 version but if you can test that would be great.

I'll test it out tonight, thanks!

Another issue I've ran into, no idea if it is related to the old version but I've noticed after watching films… About 2 seconds remaining after the film has ran its credits and returns to the selected file menu, the buffer starts running out slowly. It appears the buffer starts running out about 1 minute or 45 seconds to 30 seconds before the actual duration finishes. Leaving the film stalling about 1 - 3 seconds at the very end with the copyright date stuck at the top of screen. Rather than cleanly ending and automatically returning to the players file selection.

MP4 files can't seem to play either.

I'll check out this new version to see.

Excellent! Played flawlessly right through the film and automatically returned to the file selection.

At first I thought there was something wrong as there is a bit of a delay for the program window to appear.
