VLC: Not really closed when closed

Submitted by geoslake on July 1, 2010 - 4:30am

Hi

After having updated to 1.1, there's this icon in the systray (while it's set NOT to display that icon in vlc preferences, always worked with 1.0), which remains there after i close vlc.
I have to click on this icon, then vlc really closes.
I don't get it Sad

I also had to reset preferences, cos i didn't have osd anymore (volume indications etc)

Thanks

VLCPortable v1.1.0 font rebuild issue

Submitted by spchtr on June 29, 2010 - 6:00am

Ok, I've worked it out for myself at least. I don't know how to upload the updated files here though.

I recompiled VLCPortable.exe using the /Other/Source/VLCPortable.nsi file.

I added two lines to it. Comments are at the end of the line where I added with comments at the beginning a couple lines above each added line.

	LaunchNow:
		StrCmp $SECONDARYLAUNCH "true" LaunchAndClose
		;=== Backup local VLC files if present
		Rename `$APPDATA\vlc` `$APPDATA\vlc-BackupByVLCPortable`
		Rename `$APPDATA\dvdcss` `$APPDATA\dvdcss-BackupByVLCPortable`

[Fixed] Audacity Portable 1.3.12 Issues

  1. Broken language switching: It doesn't seem to work at all and keeps setting Audacity to System Default language which is very annoying.
  2. No instuctions for installing FFMPEG on the Audacity Portable Download page
  3. Maybe making plugin installers for FFMPEG and Lame will help with this.

BTW my PortableApps.com platform version is 2.0 Beta 4.

VLC: App Development help

Submitted by TSOL68 on February 23, 2010 - 5:11pm

Hi, I have an application need for VLC portable. I either need some major help or outsourcing. Here it is: I take videos of prospective customer's jobs then give to the customer along with my proposal. I would like to streamline this as follows:

Use VLC Portable on a flash drive to either automatically open and start playing the video(s) or Open and automatically open the media->open file to the correct directory. Optimally it would do both.

I would like to have all of this happen from a autorun and maybe hide the associated VLC directories.
