Does the lua playlists work in the portable version?

If so where do i create the directories?

i just downloaded vlc portable and listened to music for about an hour but then i got this error message after i closed and tried to open again...

access violation at address 77F741c5 in module 'SHLWAPI.dll' read of address 7E1E3120

Please help I have no idea what is going on

The AdditionalParameters var set in VLCPortable.ini doesn't seem to work. I checked the VLCPortable.nsi file and the var is set, but never used. I believe it should be passed at the end of the $EXECSTRING (on lines 188 & 192 of my .nsi file). Haven't looked into how to compile .nsi files yet so could someone please fix and post?

Thanks! -Ross

Hello,

Who is the guru at keeping applications from the host computer from launching?

Firefox Portable is great, but it looses its effectiveness when it uses applications on the host computer to play a video found on the web.

I have tried to get VLC or M-player to be the ONLY video player to launch for applications found on the web with FireFox portable, but I have not been able to achieve this.

I have worked sucessfully to get H264 files to launch, but all other files are trying to launch the default player on the host computer's hard drive.

When I look up instructions for using VLC as anything other than a player, I find instructions on using the wizards. But I don't find any wizards in VLC. Am I too blind to be allowed to use a computer?

I made research about my problem but I couldn't find any information related that.The problem is: I'm activating vlc portable ''now playing'' plugin from control interfaces settings window, but after that plugin is not working, so I cant show my current song on msn client.What is the problem and how can I solve this problem? Waiting your comments.Thanks for answers.
(note:I can use that plugin with wlm, it works fine)

I just tried the portable VLC Media Player 0.9.6 R2 as a clean install and on first run, it displays a window and asks for some input. I just wondered if the "update check"-checkbox could be unchecked by default?

Or is the update portable?

Or does it only notify me?
Even if it only notifies me, I still preferred it to not do that cause it would certainly send me to the official page...

hey guys
I used to be able to drag and drop a .bin file (vcd) into VLC and it would play no problems, this new version doesnt seem to want to play them, then when it does they have no sound, any ideas? where can I go to get an old portable version?

I was preparing to install the VLC 0.9.6 update. Normally I'd just install it over the old version, but this time I wanted to delete the old version and install the new.* However, it won't let me: "Cannot delete libvlc: Access is denied."

I did not start VLC in this session, don't have it set to auto-start, and PStart is not autorunning VLC... yet there it is in System Explorer, process vlc.exe is running. In the process details, the Command Line is: "[drive]:\PortableApps\VLCPortable\App\vlc\vlc.exe" -l ntservice --How did it get this switch?

Tried the preferences within VLC, but testing shows the problem lies with the launcher.

Any ideas on the switch required to allow multiple instances in VLCportable.ini?

"Allow multiple instances=true" does not work.

Clicking vlc.exe for the second instance starts it up, so I tend to think that this points to a problem to the launcher.

Please post your ini file if you have this working as expected.
