I can select anything I want but it files are

How do I change that?

When I read the ICO article I was dismayed it was only Zeta.. but now I can run this on R5. WMV3 certainly do work... just check ebaumsworld.com and download some stupid vid... but flash files dont work yet. Now my default player.

It works faster than the previous versions (slight faster). Tried with Flash movies, but all I see is nothing - I just hear the sound of the movie. IMHO, it still needs work...but it's the best for BeOS ;)!

I don't know why nobody update it, well maybe because it isn't a stable release yet but hey BeOS and Zeta now can play wmv9 and Flash Video 8+, two weeks ago in haikunews i see to download the test1 (only for Zeta) and works fine now we can play that ugly format wmv ;P (i don't like but sometimes i've to reboot and use windows only for see a trailer of a game for example), anyway i've seen today that there is test2a version available for BeOS and Zeta, well here is the link:
http://downloads.videolan.org/pub/videolan/testing/vlc-0.8.6-test2/beos/
Thanks to Kian Duffy.

I made an icon that suits the existing BeOS iconset better.
So, if you like this:
http://www.xs4all.nl/~rrvvww/VLCicon.png
you can download it here:
http://www.xs4all.nl/~rrvvww/VLC.zip
Tip 1: Unzip in BeOS otherwise info gets lost.
Tip 2: Use FileType add-on for the transplant.

I thought vlc was all about processing? While I was trying to find out how to get this to work, I kept running across crazy stuff, like people taking webcams and putting out two different-size live feeds while saving a high-quality copy to disk, all in one vlc command-line execution. Hasn't anyone had to rotate a video under BeOS before on a zero budget? Maybe I'm wrong but I really hope somebody can lend a hand if this at all should be working...

http://gpac.sourceforge.net/index.php
"If you want to rotate a video (for instance we you filmed upside down), you can use the trancode tool along with the MP4Box (which is part of the GPAC tools) :
mencoder -ovc lavc -lavcopts vcodec=mjpeg -vop rotate=1 -oac copy input.avi -o output.avi"

I think it is not VLC-s task.
Actually this is transcoding, and almost couldn't be done in realtime on commodity hardware.
If it is DivX-coded AVI for example, it will take no less time, I'm afraid, than turning DVD into DivX AVI.
Onscreen-rotating is much sumpler - your get rect with bytes and swap those in predicted order for each and every frame shown on screen.
But compressed video isn't sequence of those frames, like JPG isn't bitmap.
So, in theory, video-filter can create for you only video which will consist of huge number bitmaps with huge size (look at screen*.tga in your home folder after pressing PrtScr - to estimate possible size, multiplying it with 20 - FPS and with movie length in seconds:) - it is hard to expect that VLC creators will allow such stupid deal:)
So I suspect you need some other tool for the task

Thanks for the suggestion SD...I tried --no-overlay as found on http://wiki.videolan.org/index.php/VLC_command-line_help but aside from it unchecking the overlay option in the GUI prefs, it doesn't seem to affect the rotation. The transform still works on the screen but doesn't come out to the file. It does make the program a little less responsive though, so I can tell it's in bitmap mode (dragging the vlc window over the video window makes it a little choppy, unlike in overlay mode.)
Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Kev

In which mode your VLC was running - bitmap or overlay?
Try to force it to work in bitmap mode, and look if it has it rotated in screen in that case. If it does, try to save to file in bitmap-forced mode

Okay, I give up. I've been trying to rotate a video by 270 degrees from the command line. I can get it to output to the screen correctly:
/boot/apps/vlc/vlc --vout-filter="transform" $1
But I can't save the output to a file. I've tried everything I can think of. I should think this would work:
/boot/apps/vlc/vlc -I dummy --transform-type="270" $1 :sout="#transcode{vfilter=transform}:std{access=file,url=$1.rotated.avi}" vlc:quit
...which gives:
VLC media player 0.8.5-test2 Janus
[00000249] dummy interface: using the dummy interface module...
[00000268] mux_avi private: stream[0] duration:52 totalsize:12096683 frames:1580 fps:30.000000 kb/s:1794

[00000319] dummy demuxer: command `quit'
[00000245] main playlist: stopping playback
...but the resulting file is not rotated. If I turn on verbose mode it never says anything about the transformation filter (nor does it complain). I've also tried this all on 0.8.6 from the nightly build (the latest one is from April?) with the same result.
Help?

These are all broken due to changes in the core (primarily playlist related) over time. The BeOS interface, excellent as it is, hasn't been kept up to date by either the real maintainer (titer) or the wannabe maintaine (me).
In current SVN, the playlist is broken, and the interface crashes on dropping a second file to it, and I won't have time to fix this for a while yet. Theres also other issues building up over time - semi-random crashes, doesn't close from the deskbar anymore, and so on. Theres even issues with the BeOS interface not handling the new unicode handling in the core, so asian/eastern european chars in file names no longer work on file drop....
Indeed, currently you can only build vlc on R5 net_server, with the libpoll hack installed (this I have to get up on to bebits sometime...)
So, effectively, the BeOS GUI needs to be rewritten (or someone needs to port wxwidgets or qt4...) in many parts. The interface itself is still good, the audio/video output code is still fine, but features we've had have gone missing over time, and features the other UIs have have never been implemented. Opening a network stream still requires going to the CLI; getting codec/resolution/bitrate info requires looking in the messages log, etc. And some general code restructuring is required in some areas, such as where the BApplication is created/destroyed to allow vlc to close properly.
If anyone feels mad enough to do this, or help me do this over the summer, let me know...

Not sure about the elapsed time problem, but to fix KDLs, try going into "CPU features" and disabling SSE, SSE2, etc. Start with everything disabled, and gradually enable things until it starts crashing again.
On this system (Thunderbird 1.33) with R5, I can confirm that enabling SSE/SSE2 will KDL it at random (regardless of movie size), perhaps because this CPU doesn't actually have SSE? 3DNow works okay though (the CPU has that).
Not sure why this happens; maybe there's an OS issue with saving/restoring XMM registers and context switching or something? Do any other BeOS apps use SSE successfully without crashing?

I'm using the latest VLC build (0.8.5) under Zeta 1.2 and before I start talking issues I just want to say how fantastic it is that you guys are doing so much work on VLC; there's a lot of progress and every new version is a giant leap forward (among others, thanks for the WMA support). I can no longer picture Zeta or myself without it, so respect to you. It does beat MediaPlayer.
The latest version poses two issues with me, which I have been able to reproduce on a second system in my home using the same Zeta install. I wonder; does anyone else experience these issues?
* VLC 0.8.5 does not display file information (elapsed time, chapter, title). It does work properly when installing an earlier version of VLC on the same platform.
* I get KDLs at random times with random messages. I have only experienced it thus far with movies (~700 MB). Like I said, I have been able to reproduce this on two completely different systems.
Sys info: #1; AMD Sempron 3000+ 1.8 GHz, 512 MB RAM, VooDoo III, SoundBlaster Live! 5.1 -- #2; Intel Pentium III 667 MHz, 512 MB RAM, Radeon 7000 +TV-out, SoundBlaster Live! Value -- both run Zeta R1.2.

The sound problem on some files is still there.
On some files I only hear noice, same files have
perfect sound with version 7.2.
The counter doesn't work either which is also
working in version 7.2.
I worked my way trough a zillion webpages on VLC
but I didn't found where to repport this bug.

After version 7.2 I believe, VLC has problems with
the sound of many wmv files. I just tied the latest build and this problem is still there.
I registered after surfing several web pages but I still can't report this problem.
Can't they make this a little simpler?

I've realised theres a problem, I've no idea -why- there was a problem, and its not there now in 0.8.5svn. It also affects RealAudio files, seems to be a problem in resampling or similar.
I'll try to get a fixed build up if I can.

0.8.4b just has a few MacOS X fixes and a ffmpeg security fix (which this has) over 0.8.4a. The original BeOS build of 0.8.4a (which I linked to in talkback) was dynamically linked and had problems doing CSS decryption on many peoples machines, even after libdvdcss was installed.

Are not my job :p - that's titers job, and I've a feeling it may be ffmpeg thats stopping them building, as its majorly broken direct from CVS right now on BeOS.
The link has changed to: ftp://ftp.videolan.org/pub/vlc/0.8.4a/beos now, as its now an official build.
