Music & Video Apps Support

I've installed both but was wondering which one people use more? (I know this is the VLC forum)

For those who track of things, VideoLan has released version 0.8.6i of VLC now (actually a week ago, if anybody really cares)... expect to see the portable version in the future!

I was wondering if there is a way to disable multiple session for VLC so when I click on different media files they open in the same window instead of having another VLC pop up.

ok, so supposedly you can et thisworking by d.l.ing wine and whatnot, anyways, have the portable program from the site saved to my drive, ran it,andistalledit on my comp. so i go to the file, openit,click audacityportable.exe andnot a dam thing happens...any solutions?

i am running the latest version of the portable app version of vlc for windows, and am wondering how to go to a specific hour:minute:second when a video_ts file is loaded. i am familiar with how to do this with the mac version of vlc. thanks for your help.

I found a link today on Audacity's website for the newest version (1.3.5 at time of this post) as a zip file. They list it as an option for those at a computer lab that cannot run the installer. I was able to uzip the file at work and run the program without installing. I haven't tried it from my thumbdrive yet, so I don't know what glitches or problems there might be, but from my desktop it seems to work fine!

Here's the link: http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/beta_windows#recdown (under "Optional Downloads")

I am on a hot project to create some documentation based on AVIs created with SnagIt 8 that include both video and sound. On playback I can only get the sound. I have VLC 0.8.6c running on WinXP Pro SP4.

is there a way to condense the whole package down to a single exe file? i've tried the usual methods (winrar, iexpress, bat2exe converter, etc.), but they haven't worked that well.

thanks!

Not sure if this is a portable bug or with VLC itself, but it might be the portable, so here goes:

* I create a shortcut to VLCPortable.exe
* i add "-help" to the shortcut
* I click the shortcut
* A console window opens and tells me the help has been dumped to vlc-help.txt

So far that's fine.

However - given that I have set the option in VLCPortable/VLC to use English (instead of the machine default language) I would expect the vlc-help.txt to be in English as well - but it isn't - half of it is in English, and half of it is in the machines default language.

My VLC Portable is playing a song but no sound is coming out, the file is m4a i think. Help!
