VLC cannot play timeshift temporary files
When using the time shift function, VLC saves temporary files, named e.g. "vlc-timeshift.14XLEC"
Version = VLC media player 1.0.0-rc2 Goldeneye OS = Windows 2000, SP4
An example way to create these files is to timeshift live DVB-T.
VLC is unable to play these temporary files. MediaInfo is able to recognise the files and mplayer is able to play them.
