that's why I mentioned libvlcsharp.

`VlcMediaPlayer.Rate =...` should work. Provide full logs please.

You created the issue, so you should share your full code and your full verbose logs (even if you see no error)

Maybe related https://code.videolan.org/videolan/LibVLCSharp/issues/214

You could try a libvlc 4 build to see if that changes anything, but neither vlc.dotnet nor libvlcsharp supports it yet, because it's still unstable.

You can contribute changes to vlc.dotnet so that a preview version of it supports libvlc 4. But libvlc 4 is not available on nuget yet, so it will be confusing...

the nightly builds can be unstable so it could be anything. You have logs?

some of the failing tests are libvlc 4 regressions. Ideally, we'd need a test for each libvlc callback.

Need to have another look, this would be useful about now..

AFAIK, for libvlc 3, there are 4 instances of such `char*` pointers to explicitly free (see https://github.com/videolan/libvlcsharp/search?q=LibVLCFree&unscoped_q=LibVLCFree)
