Music & Video Apps Support

Every time I exit VLC Portable, the vlcrc (settings) file in Data\settings gets renamed to vlcrc.####, and the prefs won't get saved for the next session.

If I forcefully remove all these random files and just put a clean vlcrc file in the folder, VLC.exe opens fine - once - and then gets reset again.

If I open a video file as opposed to the .exe, the prefs get reset immediately. Even the Privacy and Network Access Policy popup reappears.

How do I get VLC portable to retain its preferences?

This came to my attention in a post on the Portable Freeware Forums ( http://www.portablefreeware.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=86025#p86025 ): Audacity leaves an empty folder in C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Audacity\Session Data

I checked and it's true. This is with Audacity 2.1.2.

The issue is that when you open a large playlist, it runs whenever you are at computer. However, obviously from the reason we are all using PortableApps in the first place, we may use them on different computers.

When I move from one computer to another, it's quite possible for the playlist which had it's place saved is no longer valid because it was pointing to say "D:" on the last computer, but this new computer it plugged in and initialized as "E:".

hi

is aimp 4 portable really stealth ?

for stealth i mean "stealth" means when an application is launched, used and terminated properly, it does not leave behind any entries in the registry or filesystem

thanks

False or true, Audacity Portable shows splash screen.

On https://portableapps.com/apps/music_video/cdrtfe_portable if you click on Oliver Valencia under publisher you get a http://cdrtfe.sourceforge.net/cdrtfe/index_en.html" with a 404 error. Removing the " fixes the problem. I tried it in Firefox and Chrome. Edge shows a a %22 instead of a ". I hope this helps.

I am trying to run VLC Media Player Portable 2.2.4 on XP SP3.

I get the initial splash screen when I try to start vlc from the PA start menu but ... I never get the program interface. I do see an entries for vlc.exe and VLCPortable.exe in the Windows Task Manager.

I see in download.com that this version from PA should work on XP. So, I am asking for help here.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,
It seems that AIMP can't keep scanned music library when the drive letter changes.
When I click on a music on the list the player can't find the file, because the drive letter changed. The same occurs on playlists.

Is this a normal behaviour?

Thanks!

Hello Forum Admins and all other users,

Finally, I'm here, I like the art of PortableApps.com and the ultimate support.
I had in the past even portablized "MusicBrainz Picard" in my early days.

But I did not dare to publish it here, because I was afraid to do anything wrong with the licenses because my English is not so perfect.
Now I have found a bug in the current version of "MusicBrainz Picard v1.3.2"

Hi,

I'm using VLC Media Player 2.2.1 in Windows 7.

I'd like to increase the viewing size of the video since it looks so
small on screen.

On YouTube, you can adjust the view settings but this is a video I
downloaded and want to watch (instructional stuff) but it appears
small as it does on YouTube but seemingly without the modification
settings in VLC Media Player that YouTube offers.

I Googled this and many results shared you can't zoom with VLC Media Player.

Is there any way to zoom?

TIA.
