VLC - Audio and Video out of sync.

That's not a problem with VLC, it's a problem with lousy AVI's There is, I believe, an option in VLC to change the audio/video sync; check the (advanced) preferences to be sure...

I would also never install codecs on my mac as VLC plays all video files I would like to see (except for windows media) flawlessly...

 

You might try deleting the prefs file for VLC (if simply restarting the app doesn't help). There are some advanced options to change the video/audio sync, and these may have gotten messed up at some point.

 

No, its a problem with VLC. These audio tracks play perfectly fine in QuickTime-based apps and Mplayer OSX, but not in VLC.

There a numerous user-selectable settings in VLC. It is indeed likely that one or more of them will remedy the problem ... but which one?

But with the requisite codecs installed, these formats become available to virtually every MacOS X application on your computer. To each his own.

 

i've had videos play perfectly in qt and not in vlc, and visa versa. that's why you have mplayer, vlc, and quicktime.

when one works, others don't. when other's don't, another will. you said it works in mplayer... use mplayer.

sometimes you can't win with all of the porno, i mean, movies that we download.
