VLC only play the file with waveout here and not with DSound, even though I set vlc to 2K and the output module to directX. It always switches to wave out. Tested with 2.0.5, 2.0.6 and 2.0.8.

Yes it works. Test system: ME / Creative SB 128 PCI / Celeron 440 Conroe-L (SSE2,SSE3,SSSE3) Modules Tree (Tools > Messages): First image: ModulesTree ME 2.1.1 directX on the right: ModulesTree ME 2.1.1 Wave out and below: ModulesTree XP 2.1.1 direktX

The default setting for the audio output modul is automatic. VLC 2.1.1 try to play the (24-bit/192 khz) flac file with DirectX audio output, whereas 2.0.8 switches to the waveout audio output. 2.1.1 plays the file, if I manually select the waveout audio output. This explains why 2.1.1 loads the DSound.dll and 2.0.8 don't.
-
Procedure: I used the ProcessViewer. Saved the modules list as txt file and sorted the modules with Word alphabetically. DSound.dll is loaded by version 2.1.1 and it isn't loaded by version 2.0.8. And there are a lot of differences with loaded Lib....Plugin.dll's between these versions. Loaded modules 2.0.8: Loaded modules 2.1.1:

Hallo Nomen, I tried to play a (24-bit/192 khz) flac file of 2L.no with different versions. I only tested on one machine yet (Creative SB 128 PCI). Vlc versions 2.0 - 2.0.8 play the file on ME and XPSP2. Versions 2.1.0 and 2.1.1 don't play it on ME. confirmed But they play it on XP SP2. So the problem seems related on 98/ME. All tests performed with default settings. All versions are available on http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/.

Probably the bug will be fixed with version 2.1.2. https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=115231

I've done two more tests with version 2.1.1. The first configuration: Vista SP1 / soundchip is the integrated Via VT1708 High Definition Audio controller. The second configuration: XP SP2 / onboard chip is the Realtek ALC 888s. The result is I get the same poor audio quality again when playing flac. The same here. It doesn't matter on my systems. Of course it runs without installation. Accidentally my flac test files are Acoustic Alchemy, too.
-
VLC 2.1.1 on another machine (VIA VT1612A @ VIA AC'97 Enhanced Audio Controller PCI onboard): Flac is rendered with that nasty sound, too. The other formats I tested seem to be ok, also mp3. There's no problem with Flac using version 2.1.0. I performed the tests with default settings.
-
VLC 2.1.1 released: http://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/2.1.1/win32/ There are a lot of changes and fixes. Now flac is rendered ugly for me. I get the same poor audio quality when playing flac on XP SP2 on the same machine. So I guess the reason is the old soundcard (Creative SB PCI128 (Ensoniq ES1371) PCI) or a new bug.

Yesterday I tried some nightly builds 2.1.1 and 2.2.0, unfortunately without success to run them. http://nightlies.videolan.org/build/win32/?C=M;O=D Error: Vlc causes an error in Libvlccore.dll I haven't examined the problem more closely yet.

No, it doesn't. But K Meleon Twin+ still runs with Gecko engine 1.9.2 http://kmeleon.sourceforge.net/forum/read.php?1,123763,page=1 (last K-Meleon Twin+ build with some little additions| Updated 11.11.2013!) MSFN Topic: http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/158952-newer-version-of-k-meleon-just-released/

Need help with firefox 3.6.28: icons, jpg not showing
schwups replied to farfigs11's topic in Windows 9x/ME
After three or four repetitions and reboots the problem seem to be gone. -
My setting for float32 is enabled (default). High-quality float32 audio output isn't well supported by some soundcards: https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=48799 https://wiki.videolan.org/Documentation:Modules/directx_aout/ https://wiki.videolan.org/Documentation:Modules/waveout/

I assume that your problems still persists. Did you try a clean install (delete preferences and cache)? Did you run after uninstall a registry cleaner? Vlc 2.1 runs on all of my machines without these problems (default settings). The player doesn't need external codecs. Probably it works best with the internal codecs. Maybe there is an incompatibility with another app. https://wiki.videolan.org/VSG:Audio:Crackles/

Need help with firefox 3.6.28: icons, jpg not showing
schwups replied to farfigs11's topic in Windows 9x/ME
A workaround for the current session. It works here only until reboot. I added a second theme (here vista aero), loaded it and then FF looks fine. Then I changed the theme back to default. -
You must choose compability mode XP for the installation, but don't run VLC Player with that mode . KernelEX is enabled (default) should work . You also have to replace the msvcrt.dll by msvcr70.dll (see Wiki).

schwups replied to farfigs11's topic in Windows 9x/ME
I also have this problem, but only on one machine ( KernelEX 4.5.2 ). It isn't very important for me. Usually I prefer Opera. Sometimes I run FF 9.01 with the HyperBK plugin (history and bookmarks alternative). It isn't slower than 3.x here. There are probably only a few affected systems out there. FF 4 and higher isn't affected. About the problem has been reported here in the KernelEX topic. AFAIK it isn't solved. The next days I'll check it again. There was already a bugfix > KernelEx v4.5 RC 4: Fixed: missing background colors and images in Mozilla Firefox 3.6.9/3.6.10 -
KernelEx Apps Compatibility List (New)
schwups replied to xrayer's topic in Windows 9x Member Projects
Some days ago I searched for older versions of QupZilla, but I didn't find any useful windows version. Only current versions 1.3.5 (one year old) and newer. I also had no success to run it. -
KernelEx Apps Compatibility List (New)
schwups replied to xrayer's topic in Windows 9x Member Projects
Yes it should work with KernelEX 4.5.2. Recently visited addresses, history and bookmarks don't work. It doesn't work with KernelEX 4.5.1 and older. http://kernelex.sourceforge.net/wiki/Mozilla_Firefox -
Did you verify your KernelEX installation with the KernelEX Tool "verify.exe" and "Ktree" (Kext: DIY KernelEx extensions topic)? Ktree must show under Core.ini kexbasen and kexbases. Did you install a graphics driver? Did you try Opera 10.63 and Firefox 2.0.0.20? Set the compatibility mode to disabled. I guess you know that virtual machines always run slower.
-
I confirm that Opera 10.10 crash on sourceforge.net and I can't download KernelEX with IE6 on sourceforge.net. I successfully downloaded it with Opera 10.01. I've no virtual machine running. IMO Opera 10.5 is a very bad choice on Win98.
-
Only a few versions are working for me. Versions 3.2.0.175, 3.5.0.229 or 3.8.0.188 still running. Maybe there are some more. E.g. 3.6.0.248 or 3.1.0.152 are terminated on start (Message: Update required...).

VLC 2.1 runs here without K lite codec Pack and ffdshow on my system.

Also my knowledge is very limited. Jumpers tools ImportPatcher and KTree are very helpful to find missing API's and dependencies. Note the Dependency Walker doesn't know something about KernelEX. In the case of MPC-BE it will not be enough to add these API's to the Kstub.ini. It seems to be very complex. I believe there is a bunch of unmet dependencies, too. To make matters worse the Uxtheme.dll (KernelEX folder) is integrated into KernelEX. In the case of SumatraPDF 2.3 it is easy to add "[DBGHELP.dll] SymFromAddr=" to the ini file (example only for WinME). SymFromAddr isn't called, so that you do not even need a stub for it. VLC Player 2.1.0: It should run with "Default mode" (specific) or "use default comp options", if 2.0.8 works for you. Otherwise run the ImportPatcher (first click no) and look into the ini. Maybe there is a hint. Did you make a complete uninstall 2.0.8 (Settings and Cache)? BTW it still looks good for Flash Player 11.9. The beta runs.
