So... I've been using vlc for years. Reinstalled windows like month ago and just now noticed that some wmv files play at 15fps. Not in slow motion but just laggy. Sound comes out ok.
And in windows media player, the same video is like 1 frame per second without sound at all.
Tried turning hw decoding, installing cccp and all I could think of, and vlc still can't play some .wmv videos well. While the same video in mp4 are playing ok.
Same video plays well on my phone.
Also - mp-hc plays it all just ok... so what is going on. Everything was playing great with vlc for years.
edit: Just a heads up, it don't even affect all .wmv files and no codec helps. only mp-hc. It even could be amd drivers, who knows
edit2: Also.. I was wondering why does video look a bit different in mphc... amd ccc default setting regarding video actually affect mphc and didn't vlc
edit3: Wow... just wow. Much have changed in a past couple of years. Mphc and madvr rendered is now the thing to go by... and it looks and works great. Hope this info comes in handy for someone here
