[Fixed] VLC: Extended settings (e.g. EQ) missing in 1.0.3?

I've just gotten around to updating VLC on this flash drive (it was 1.0.2 before) and suddenly the extended settings are gone. Clicking the icon on the program window does nothing, going to the menu option does nothing, and CTRL+E does nothing. Could it somehow have been left out of the compile?

I'm installing 1.0.2 again over 1.0.3 to see if this solves the problem. I'm glad SourceForge lets you go back and download previous versions. I don't have to use the extended settings at home, but at this terminal it's crucial, to tweak the EQ to make the one little speaker sound good.

Can the 'VLC Portable player' do this ?

Hi
I would be grateful if anyone can tell me if the following is possible with the 'VLC Portable player' and if so, how I should set it up to get the desired effect.

I’ve created an AVI video file, that I wish to play (from a CD) at its original 100% video quality, in full screen mode.

My AVI video was recorded on a PC, with a PC's Screen resolution of 800x600.
My AVI file was also created at the full Screen resolution of 800x600.

So I wish to include the 'VLC Portable player' and my Video on the CD, so that the video will 'autoplay' upon inserting the CD into any PC's CD player…

VLC: Codecs?

Submitted by linker27 on October 9, 2009 - 5:20pm

I've got a whole bunch of old avi files I want to share with a relative; they're encoded with Divx 5. She's really into portable apps, so I wanted to see about playing them for her off a USB-drive.

My question:

Is there a way to somehow package the codec with VLC Portable, without installing extra stuff on my aunt's machine? Or would I be better off re-encoding the files (which I can do, technically, but find a pain).
