VLC 3.0.1 with VLsub 0.10.2 Hangs on any search or download request #207

mdisante commented 6 years ago

This same issue has been happening now for over a year. I really appreciate that VLC and VLsub are available, but they are simply not usable. If this is a problem with server congestion, would it be overly difficult to have a message displayed like 'Server is busy, wait or retry?'.

Yep, I have the same problem.

Even, I have the same problem. I'm on Mac OS 10.13.3

ThatLurker commented 6 years ago

@duplex143 as your using a mac i would suggest moving to iina, it has internal sub downloader with multiple providers and the player itself is awesome and well maintained

sumanth-culli commented 6 years ago

Thanks for recommending iina. Never heard of that until now. It's simply awesome.

ionesculiviucristian commented 6 years ago

Slow, buggy and outdated. Any news for the 3.x version of VLC?

After pressing Ctrl+M and analyzing debug output of VLC, I've seen this message after I tried to download subtitles:

same as @michalspondr, vlc 3.0.7.1

@michalspondr : fixed by adding a bunch of useflags to vlc: X a52 alsa aom archive bidi dav1d dbus dts dvbpsi dvd encode faad ffmpeg flac fontconfig gcrypt gme gstreamer jpeg libass libcaca libnotify libsamplerate live lua mad matroska mp3 mpeg musepack ncurses ogg omxil opencv opus png postproc pulseaudio qt5 shout ssl svg taglib theora tremor truetype twolame udev v4l vaapi vorbis vpx x264 x265 xml

@Wonko7, please elaborate on how to solve the issue.

mdisante commented 4 years ago

I have found that with the latest version of VLC (3.0.8) and the latest version of Vlsub (0.11.0) everything works fine with the default settings. Once in a while, Vlsub will appear to hang due to a non-response from the web site it is referencing. If you wait it out (roughly a minute or so) it will come back and you can retry or gracefully exit Vlsub.

Wonko7 commented 4 years ago

@grount it was a bug specific to those installing vlc from gentoo, the default minimal useflags aren't sufficient to get vlsub working.

Which USE flag fixed the issue? I'm getting the same error when trying to download any subtitle.

It's USE=archive that causes this error if it is disabled (and of course lua is also required).
