This, it would be nice if XFCE knew how to scale the mf on my 4KTV but VLC just werks

Why does this shit always have that corruption for a second or two when playing a video?
>>
>>109169832
because it's streaming-brained video player and that nature bogs it down even when playing local files.
>>
>>109169880
This, and because it treats everything like a stream, it can play partial files that are still being downloaded like the way old internet used to buffer videos.

>>109169164
Excluding the VLC install dir in Windows Defender solved the problem for me, anon

i love how windows defender always fucking rams anything that uses the filesystem even a tiny bit
good luck compiling shit with unsanctioned IDEs without defender taking 30-50% of your cpu and disk usage

Could have apt installed mpv and played the video in 30 seconds

I was under the impression that my PC was too potato to even play a movie because of this garbage app.

mpv used to not have this problem when wm4 was in charge but now that haasn and dmg are in charge it does
>>109169234
this also takes forever to load if you have lavf enabled which if you don't what's the point of using it instead of vlc
>>
>>109171178
I will clarify that I used scoop to install VLC

>>109169164
So it's not just me? I was thinking it was a hard drive issue

It's a small price to pay for security. Using windows defenders real-time protection is the only safe and effective way to keep your PC safe.

My PC has DDR4 RAM and an 8GB graphics card and VLC loads instantly and plays perfectly?

I believe it's the GM45 chipset that handles RAM on this machine. This chipset maxes out at 8GB.

>What sticks you got nigga?
See pic for RAM info.

>I should put that in my Latitude E6400 if its not too much money
Cost & time may be a problem. I initially bought two sticks of RAM from China, one of which turned out to be faulty (Memtest86+ rules). Luckily I got refunded half the price. I had to buy a second stick of RAM from an American company which was almost as pricey as the two-pack was.

Good luck, man.

Kek!

Pot Player is the objectively best video player anyway!

>>109172374
NO. It must be some sort of update. I have an i9 with 64GB ram and it still takes 10 seconds to start the first VLC video. After the first one it starts up normal. Before whatever changed, it started up instantly.

Yes, just check the faq if start time is long.

Started happening for me after the latest update.
Rebuilding the plugin cache was what fixed it in the end.
