Music & Video Apps Support

I am showing a video on various computers using VLC portable and the time slider is not showing on some computers, but is on others.

I know its not always as simple as dragging and dropping,or changing the install folder.SO when I download and install the new updates do I just point it to

X:\PortableApps\vlcportable

and install?

the documentation isnt very specific

Upgrading VLC Portable

To upgrade to a newer version of VLC Portable, just install a new copy over the old one.

I tried several versions of VLC Portable on Windows 7.
Each time there is no audio when playing video oder audio files.
What can I do?

I've been looking for a portable video on demand server for some of my media files, and was wondering if anyone had any experience getting VLCPortable to enable the http server built into it for on demand streaming?

-Using VLC in my pc (not installed in a usb drive)

-Windows XP Pro SP3

Steps I did:

-Double clicked VLCPortable.exe (running from app/vlc/vlc.exe has the same result... is there a difference in running from this instead of the xxxportable.exe on root?)

-Went to preferences

-File associations

-Set up what I wanted (everything except playlists)

-Clicked apply

-Vlc crashed

found instances of *.cache-2 in VLCPortable.nsi and changed them to *.cache-3, recompiled and it no longer has to build the font cache. No idea why vlc developers changed the file name, but it changed with 1.1.3

Thanks for the update, been waiting for it for a while. I have gotten to the point that I can and do sometimes compile my own but prefer to have the official releases whenever possible.

I downloaded the new vlc player a few minutes ago and when i went to use it,it didn't load. I tried both normal and run as administrator and while it shows up on the list,it won't run. What i ended up doing was that i created a shortcut directly to the executable in the main app folder and it's working now. My question are: Is this a bug in the vlc player,the download installer,somewhere in the process,etc and is there a way i can fix it to where i can load it from the platform instead of using the shortcut i made?

When my screen saver activates, VLC abruptly closes and the process terminates.

I'm running on Win XP, all latest updates, and this is happening on VLC 1.1.0 and all subsequent versions.

I downloaded it and extracted zip in the ffmpeg folder. I use the locate button to locate the dll, and then ok but it still says |FFmpeg library not found", wth?
