Music & Video Apps Support

Hi all.

I recently DL'd VLC portable 0.86c, unpacked it and launched. Then I tried to change to another skin - which I had DL'd - from the default skin (Unfortunately, I can't recall exactly what I did, as it was over a week ago). After I finished my changes, VLC minimized itself to the taskbar, and the options to restore and maximize were greyed out.

Since then, every time I've tried to fire up VLC, it appears onscreen ONLY minimized to taskbar, only now with a new twist from that first time:
It will appear as TWO taskbar tabs/buttons, not just one.

When I had XP, I used the Audio Record Wizard that allowed me to record off of "WAVE" audio so whatever was playing through the sound card (and through my receiver to the speakers) would be recorded. This was used for streaming audio for radio shows. I still use that same sound card with Vista I did with XP, a Creative Digital USB Audio Card and this computer also came with a RealTek HD Audio card as well.

It worked fine on my XP at work, but at home on Vista, it doesn't. I'm using the same copy of the player that I used at work and even downloaded 2 new ones and had the same results. Does this for all of the video formats I tried. .FLV, .WMA, .MPEG, etc.

Problem with Vista?

I installed VLC portable player in my flash drive. It got corrupt for unknown reasons. So, I tried to delete it to install a fresh copy. But it won't let me delete the folder. It says, "Can't remove folder plugins:directory is not empty". Please, help me out.

Wonna vlc without "options" menu (all options in config file only) or unchangable "options" menu (password enter only). Is it real?

Whenever I try to rewind or fast forward via the slider bar, VLC resets itself and starts playing my video from the beginning.... I've checked the forums and not found anything....

got any ideas?

thanks

The Version History for this application says: "1.2.6 Rev 2 - February 28, 2006", I think you meant the year to be 2007.

Thanks for a great portable application!

vlc player supports .mkv files?

Hi guys got a small problem using VLC Portable to view screen capture movies I make.
The only ones to play use the techsmith codec all others that use.wmv or msu codec (.avi format) wont play picture just sound (sound is .mpg3). I'd expect problems with .wmv as it is windows but not the msu codec. Any idea what the problem might be.

Is it just me, or does VLC skip audio playback?

I was playing around with foobar2000, and it seemed to play continuously, regardless of CPU usage, but VLC skips occasionally.
