Heavy Problem: VLc VLC does not save any settings

Postby battlefox » 22 Oct 2005 15:21

I got a heavy problem with VLC 8.0.2 and also with the new beta:

It doesnt matter if i change the settings of the player, The changes will not be made and not be saved.
The FAQ says there will be a cfg file created in the "Documents and Settings". There are no VLC config files on my hgarddisc stored at all.

Please help me :(

The actual file is in \Documents and Settings\[your username]\Application Data\vlc, which is hidden. As for saving, make sure you click 'Save' on the options dialog. OK applies them without saving, while Save applies and saves them.
