FreeCommander Forum

Hello,

I use FreeCommander since 2008, and noticed in 2011 that drag and drop music files (*.MP3) from FreeCommander window to the software player VLC (http://www.videolan.org) makes VLC freeze (the music don't start and VLC is froze forever).

I hoped that VLC updates may fix the issue, but today even with the v1.1.11 the issue is still the same.

The big problem is that the issue does not happens every time !!... Some times (~ 25%) it works.

The issue does not occurs when using Windows explorer.

Any idea please ?

Configuration :
Windows XP SP 3.
FreeCommander v2009.02b
TeraCopy v2.12 installed.

It works OK for me on my win7x64.

Today I reproduced the issue with VLC v1.0.9 portable (same computer).

I wish to report that since I use VLC v2.0.3 the issue seems to have disapeared.

When I run a video to run in VLC, the start is quite long, don't know why, so perhaps it's related...

No problem on my system with FC 2009.02b (v 418) or FCXE (v 603) and VLC 2.02 (32 bit) on Win 7 (64 bit).
