I downloaded some music recently (2-channel stereo, 24-bit, 192 khz) flac files. They don't play on VLC 2.1.0 and 2.1.1 (I hear no audio during playback). During playback, VLC statistics shows the input bit rate (input, demuxed and content) all active, but the Audio statistics (decoded / played / lost) all show 0 blocks / 0 buffers.

Even VLC 2.0.8 shows the same thing - no audio playback. I tried a test file that I got more than a year ago (2-channel, 24-bit, 192 khz) and it also doesn't play.

The last version of VLC I had prior to updating was 2.0.6, and I know the high bit-rate files played on it, but I have to now go and find that version of VLC to be sure.

Schwups - can you play any high-resolution flac files (24-bit/192 khz) with VLC? There are some available as test files here: http://www.2l.no/hires/index.html

The file 2L50SACD_tr01_stereo_192kHz.flac is the smallest one (108 mb).

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.

VLC statistics shows the input bit rate (input, demuxed and content) all active, but the Audio statistics (decoded / played / lost) all show 0 blocks / 0 buffers.

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/.

I've performed a few tests with GOM Player, Trout and my own BASS-based player on my old 98SE.

First of all, the BASS library simply crashes with a MSVCR70.dll used as MSVCRT.DLL. So any media player that uses BASS will likely crash. Not to mention BASS v2.4.10 (latest at the time of posting) crashes the audio driver in the DSP test application that comes with the package.

Then, none of the players would play the 2L50SACD_tr01_stereo_192kHz.flac on my 98SE, regardless of KernelEx compatibility settings for BASS.dll, bassflac.dll or player executables.

I got to the conclusion that the culprit may be dsound.dll and/or other 9x-specific media library common for all players. The file plays correctly in Trout under XP-SP3 and after installing oggcodecs, GOM Player was able to play it too under XP.

Installing a few older versions of oggcodecs in 98SE did not help; codecs appear to be loaded but all players would bail out.

Could anyone check the difference between the loaded modules of older (working) and newer (not working) VLC on a ME machine? We might get an idea of which file(s) break the playback.

Indeed no sound with VLC 2.1.1 (portable) !!

MediaPlayerClassic Home Cinema (1.5.1.2903) plays the file but sound is very bad - sounds almost like a mono recording from the 1930s !!

So it may indeed be something more 98se related than a player 'issue'.

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:

Thank you for the listings above. It does seem that the new VLC switched to DSOUND processing/output and the old 9x-compatible version can't handle certain formats. Most likely any player that relies on dsound will fail on those formats.

On another note, today I've installed the MPC-HC version mentioned by Mikl above and tried to play more media files - none of them would. This means I have to fix some other issues on my system. Once I do that (hopefully), I'll have a look at that script, Mikl.

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. :)

So, would the FLAC play in 2.1.1 with waveout set as output?

Nevertheless, dsound appears to be broken and whatever player depends on it will not be able to play FLAC, at least not the file in question.

Doesn't it strike you as odd that a much newer library (dsound.dll from DirectX 9.0c) is unable to play a file type that a much older (system original, assumingly) can? Unless there's something I'm missing here...

I've just installed VLC 2.0.5 in Win2000 compatibility and it plays the file in both Dsound and waveout modes, but both choppy as reported somewhere above. This could be due to missing CPU instructions (PIII doesn't have SSE2) and/or low speed (mine is 667MHz/133MHz bus).

Darn, we're just assuming things.

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

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.

Same here - but only on my Intel-chipset/Envy24 soundcard PC !!

Still no sound on the VIA-chipset/VIA-Realtek-AC97 system. This may be because the latest AC97-driver (A4.06) does not work there (yellow exclamation mark) !!

Follow up:

The workaround that Nomen mentioned below - keeping 2.0.8. installed but playing the file with 2.1.1. portable works !!

I see. Thanks for the screenshots schwups, it's clear now: VLC automatically switches the output to first/best available. I had set DirectX output in settings but the modules tree stills shows waveout for the respective FLAC upon playback.

In Messages I have:

main error: ES_OUT_SET_(GROUP_)PCR is called too late (pts_delay increased to 1000 ms)

main error: ES_OUT_RESET_PCR called

(sorry for the large image size, Internet is not what it used to be anymore)

My 98SE machine has a VIA Apollo Pro / VT82C596 chipset and the soundcard is C-Media CMI8738 with Diamond Multimedia drivers v5.12.01.0046.5.1. As mentioned before, CPU is Intel PIII EB Coppermine 667MHz/133 FSB/256kB cache (MMX, SSE).
