XMPlay Portable upgrade issue

Submitted by DJ_ZX on December 28, 2015 - 7:46pm

I had installed and configured XMPlay Portable and added several plugins, skins and configs to it.
After last update ALL my custom data was just removed from \PortableApps\XMPlayPortable\App\XMPlay folder like it never was there.
That's really confusing, why such cleanup performed? It was done just after upgrade. Please remove cleanup action or add backup if you cannot just "not touch" additional files in XMPlay folder.
Thanks

Audacity: Portable will not open WAV files

Submitted by pwright2 on December 11, 2015 - 6:52pm

I've got Audacity 2.1.1 Portable. I have reinstalled it several times. (Downloaded paf and installed over previous installation.) It will not import WAV files. if I have it set to normalize files automatically. It stops on (Waiting for waveform to finish computing..) Reprots Stopped: Import complete. Running an on-demand waveform calculation. 0% complete. If I turn off normalize, it loads fine. And I can successfully run normalize after it is loaded.

I discovered the workaround while writing this.

VLC portable wrapper around an AVI

Submitted by ajtsystems on November 10, 2015 - 9:13am

IS it possible to have a movie say an AVI with a VLC portable wrapper around so that people can just play the moving using VLC portable without having to let Windows decide which app is the best to play the movie?

I ask as I am experiencing problems with the users of VLC portable just clicking the moving on the memory stick and it playing with Windows Media player.

Thanks

VLC: Downloading of a video impossible

Submitted by tapsklaps on October 12, 2015 - 2:13pm

Certainly, the problem described below has nothing to do with the portability of the app. But maybe someone has a plausible explanation. In the past I have already several times tried in vain to download Youtube videos with VLC-Player. First, I copy the web address of the YouTube video in the Windows clipboard. Then I click in the VLC-Player on Media> Convert / Save ...Then I switch to the "Network" tab and add the web address with Ctrl + V. Then I go to the "Convert / Save".

VLC video freezes

Submitted by pgro65 on September 1, 2015 - 6:23am

On starting to view a .MOV video file, VLC shows the opening couple of frames, then freezes, holding the picture static. The audio meanwhile continues to play correctly.

The same video file plays perfectly well on Windows Media Player.

I'm on XP sp3, with latest version of VLS (2.2.1).

Any ideas whats going on here?

VLC Portable

since some weeks it is impossible to update VLC to version 2.2.1. I can neither update via the PortableApps-updater, nor can I download it from the apps list.
I don't think I'm the only one who has this problem

opening vlc media player to playist interface

Submitted by eager on May 24, 2015 - 12:52pm

I downloaded the most recent version of VLC media player for Windows on to my desktop running XP and when I open VLC media player it automatically opens to the Playlist interface where I can see Media, etc. tabs which makes it easier to add to the empty playlist box or convert audio files.

When I downloaded VLC media player to my laptop running Windows 7 it opens to that black box and then I have to go searching for creating playlist every time.
