What version of VLC are you using? Use the latest version if it isn't already.

Deleteing preferences and cache files might help.

However, if you go to "View >> Customize Interface..." you should be able to add/change the interface buttons, including the Record button.

Cheers, Arite.

:s there's not even a View tab on the vlc! only Media, Audio, Video, Playback, Playlist, Tools, Help.
I've had vlc look to update itself,and it did a few days ago, but still stuck on this. :\ could it be i'd have to just manually install the newest version?

Im having the same problem... Is it the fact that I'm using my laptop thats the problem or is it the program itself...? Works fine on desktop...
