I can't replicate this.

does this happen with all videos, or just some?

in the past, there have been issues with some videos that are actually coming from vimeo (or something like that) where they won't play through VLC. I'm wondering if this is the same issue?

Well the truth is I tried several videos and the error persists, so I went to this forum

thanks for the images - which of those videos did you click on to get the error?

also - if you can copy that error into an answer, that might help!

ok - I don't find that it fails for any video, so how about this:

you try playing

'VLC Streamer - Quick Start' (this works for me)

send me the error if it doesn't play

you let me know one specific video which fails for you - and I'll try that.
