VLC portable not starting

Submitted by helladaur on October 16, 2023 - 4:08am

Hi,

VLC portable is not starting; the portable apps wrapper claims there is another instance of VLC already running, but that is not the case. The computer was rebooted.

This happened after installing the Milkdrop visualization plugin.

Removing the portable VLC folder and reinstalling it does not help.

Any idea how to fix this?

Thanks

[Fixed] MediaInfo 23.10 opens with preferences window

Submitted by daniel_schaaaf on October 9, 2023 - 10:29am

Upon starting the latest MediaInfo 23.10, the MediaInfo preferences window opens, instead of the main application window.
I tried changing some MediaInfo settings (which are properly saved), and even re-installing MediaInfo. But it still starts with the preferences window every time I launch the app.

[Fixed] MPC-BE Lost Recent File History Upon Updating

Submitted by An Unused Username on June 19, 2023 - 8:08am

Updated to the most recent version of MPC-BE and immediately after updating discovered it had lost my entire recent files history. This isn't behavior one would typically expect as a result of updating an app. And it's a serious problem due to losing your place in all partially watched videos, no longer being able to reference which videos you have or haven't watched, etc. Reporting it here in the hope a solution can be found to avoid this issue during future updates. TIA

TEncoder video download question

Submitted by yosemite on April 22, 2023 - 7:23pm

I just downloaded TEncoder and was trying to download a youtube video. I copied the link and pasted it into the "Link" window and hit download but it pops up with an error window that says "Please add links first". I already did that; not sure what else to do with this. I looked everywhere in google for more instructions on this with no success.

Using Musescore (Legacy 3)

Submitted by paulvp on March 1, 2023 - 11:42pm

Hello everyone

I've noticed that, after updating to Musescore 4, there is still a 'Musescore (Legacy 3)' item in the PA menu. However clicking on the item only generates a 'Could not find' error. Looking at the PortableApps folders on my hard drive, there is a 'MuseScorePortableLegacy3' folder which appears to contain the previous version (3.6.2) of Musescore, however the exe in this folder is: GrampsPortable.exe.
