VLC: Direct play from flash disk to LCD TV ?

Submitted by sukebesensei on December 20, 2010 - 5:52am

Dear all
Recently I've bought LCD TV with available USB ports (Sony BRAVIA BX300), my question is : can I play movie (especially .mkv format) directly from USB flash drive (preinstalled with VLC Portable)? So it makes my USB flash drive have similiar function with multi media player such as Western Digital TV ?

Thank you

SSL Certificates in VLC Portable not supported

Submitted by acocaracha on December 10, 2010 - 8:44am

Hello,

I'm interested in streaming from a server that is https only. Vlc has the capability, but the Data\settings does not carry over the ssl\certs and ssl\private directories if I were to create them and add a ca-certificates.crt file. I understand it would be a less used feature (requiring the user to manually add the certificate to the Data\settings\ssl\certs directory), but would it be possible to automatically generate these directories and carry them over to Application Data when the program is started.

VLC: Serious problem with 1.1.5

I tried downloading this on two different computers, and on attempting to play an avi (divx), it starts skipping horribly like a broken record (video and audio).

Tried the videos on mpui and they work fine, and the previous version worked fine as well.

Edit: BTW, on both computers I was also running Chrome portable. Don't know if that matters.

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

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