Hi,
I recently installed ffmpeg to compress some videos I had, but after finally running the ffmpeg string on PowerShell to reduce a file’s size, VLC started taking ~15/30 seconds to actually open any video file I try opening. Before the ffmpeg installation, it used to take < 1 second.
Furthermore, it started to open every video on a different window with the heading saying ‘Direct3D11 output’ at the top, additionally, I was unable to change the preferences of the app without closing the video via the task manager, and opening VLC without any file in it (which still took a very long time to open). I reinstalled and cleared all the cache and preferences from VLC, but the issue persists.
I have managed to change the default video display output from ‘Automatic’ to other options that were not ‘Direct3D11 output,’ the issue regarding the loading times persisted, although I now had access to the VLC toolbar.
Could anyone guide me through a solution?
