Possible cause 1: System running out of memory Take a look at the possible causes below, check them one by one and determine which one the reason is caused the freezing glitch for your VLC Player so that you can move on and apply the corresponding solution to fix the problem. When playing a video, VLC Player uses a certain amount of your computer’s memory or RAM to preload the video content so that you can get smooth video playback. VLC takes a certain portion of the video from the hard drive, and temporarily save it in your computer’s memory, and from there, the player accesses it and plays it. When the memory of your computer is not sufficient for the player to preload the video, your VLC player may freeze. This may happen mostly when you are playing an HD video because HD videos usually need more RAM to preload. If you are playing an online streaming video with VLC, insufficient cache space could also cause the player freezing. If you realize that the playback always freezes after about the same amount of time of playing, then this might be the case. You can try assigning more RAM for VLC to cache the video to fix the problem. The detailed steps on how to do that will be introduced later in this article. Vlc media player fixes broken automatic how to# VLC is an all-inclusive media player, meaning it can play various kinds of video material.
Sometimes different video formats need different output methods to be decoded and played properly. If you are using a wrong decode or output setting to play the video, then VLC could freeze when the playback starts. If your VLC Player freezes at the very beginning of the video’s playback, then the cause could very much likely be the wrong output setting.
Just switch the output setting to another mode, which will also be introduced later in the article. Possible cause 3: Corrupted files or hardware configuration errorĪ corrupted video file could also lead to the VLC freezing problem. If you find your video always freezing at the same time point, then the problem might have nothing to do with the player, but the file itself. Use another player or try to play the file on some other devices.
