VLC firefox plugin not portable?

Submitted by andrej19 on July 26, 2007 - 4:44am

Hello,

I am facing a problem of VLC plugin in firefox that is not working if there is no full vlc installation on my HDD.

Installation status:
1. FirefoxPortable (2.0.0.5) & VLC Portable (0.8.6c) are installed on USB stick.
2. npvlc.dll (copy from full version), libvlc.dll (copy from PortableApps\VLCPortable\App\vlc) are stored in PortableApps\FirefoxPortable\App\firefox\plugins

If the HDD full version of VLC is uninstalled the message on video web page from plugin says "no video".

VLC: Help!: Weird minimization problem I never saw before in ANY app!...

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.

Audacity: Recording off of Real Player or other WAVE stream, Vista?

Submitted by arizona480 on June 24, 2007 - 3:56am

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.

VLC Only Shows First Video Frame, Audio Plays Through Fine, Vista Issue?

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?

VLC: codec for screencapture movies

Submitted by Dai777 on June 1, 2007 - 5:07am

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.
