VLC creates new directories/folder on new thumb drive

Version 3.5.4

Newly formatted FAT32 (long version) on Windows 10. 16GB thumb drive. Add 4 .mp4 files. Plug into Fire TV $k Stick. VLC (or Android ?) adds a bunch of directories/folders. All seem to be empty. Windows see them. Can only be removed by Administrator.

Is this expected behavior ?

Re: VLC playing raw DVD & CD over OTG

Short answer is "You can't get there from here !"

Use VLC on a Windows, Mac or Linux computer to "Convert/Save" and create an MP4 file. Copy yo a thumb drive, attach via USB OTG cable to you Android device and Android VLC should be able to play it.

No video on ripped MP4

I used VLC to RIP "Title 2" from a commercial disc (The Pacific) using the latest 64 bit version of VLC on Window 10. I then copied it to a USB thumb drive and attached via a USB OTG cable to my streaming device. VLC for Android (on a Firestick 4K) see the MP4, and will play the sound, but...

I am trying to rip the commercial disc from the HBO mini series The Pacific . Each disc has 2 "titles". Using the default settings, I only get the first title. If I uncheck "No Disc Menus", it appears I get everything, but Android VLC on a Firestick 4K does not allow me to select...

Re: VLC hangs after selecting "play" from menu

Better, after installing the 64 bit version. Now some of the "splash" screens after clicking play are not fully "painted" and there are dozens of warnings in the log file.

Re: VLC won't start playing movie from AutoPlay

The disc is a copy and I only copied the "main movie". The original does work.

Any work around to get it to autoplay, other than copying the entire disk and shrinking it ?

VLC won't start backup (copy)

I used Magic DVD Copier (V9.0) to make a copy of the "Main Movie" (Meet the Robinsons) but VLC can not auto start it. I have to add the folder on the device to the playlist.

Any suggestions

twolame

So it appears that you need twolame to output audio to an MP3 file. Is there a window 7 x64 binary available for direct downloading and where to I install it so VLC can find it ?
