Most of the time the problem arises because you are using 32 bit version of VLC and not 64 bit version (if your system is 64) that is it

I have problems playing my camera videos recorded in 4K mp4. If you pause the image for a moment and advance frame by frame, after a while it stops working, you try to rewind by positioning the cursor a few seconds earlier and it doesn't respond either. You have to stop and play again from the beginning. I have done all the configuration instructions and it is still wrong. I am with W7 64, 8-core processor, 32GB ram and 6GB video.

If your graphics card is more powerful than your cpu change to DirectX or anything..it will fix it.
