Can not find installed VLC Player (www.videolan.org)

#1 Post by CabbageTree » 28.07.2017, 13:16

Thank you for adding VLC support. However I am receiving the error message "Can not find installed VLC Player (www.videolan.org)", despite I have VLC fully installed. I even downloaded the latest version and reinstalled it. Where is FC expecting VLC to be found? I have it here: "C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe".

Would you kindly advice the solution?

Thank you.

I'll assume, judging according to your path ("C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe"), that you use a 64-bit FC XE and 32-bit VLC Player. That could cause the problem.

Where do I set this? External Viewers?

Settings (F12) > view > viewer > viewer button or/and quick viewer button > Multimedia > Media > interface > VLC Player.
