Who here has a Youtube-DL compile for WinXP?

I can't reproduce the problem.  I downloaded the same video source and assets as yours and it played with my ffplay version 8.2-1568-b355200263-win32-shared.

Here is a new basic static build for you to test to see if the problem persists.

Unfortunately, the problem persists. I downloaded the video with same yt-dlp options once again. Same behaviour. Your ffplay.exe opens and immediately closes. Here is my suggestion. I'll send you a PM with a link to the video file, and you can test it in-depth on your system. Ok? If you need the yt-dlp log generated while downloading the video, do not hesitate to ask for it here.

@autodidact When testing, please use this command:

Quote

ffplay -autoexit -vf subtitles=filename=\'"Adele - Easy On Me (Live at the NRJ Awards 2021).mp4"\' "Adele - Easy On Me (Live at the NRJ Awards 2021).mp4"

I think it is a problem in showing the subtitle in version 8.2 as the standard command without subtitle works:

Quote

ffplay -autoexit "Adele - Easy On Me (Live at the NRJ Awards 2021).mp4"

BTW, the MSFN editor is such a piece of junk. To inject this code into my post, is an absolute nightmare. I had to simplify my command. MSFN seems to consider completely harmless DOS commands to be dangerous.
