Re: automating vlc installation

Thanks for all the suggestions but, this hasn't gotten way too complicated. Based on what I just read, I downloaded the source-code, a NSIS installer...discovered I needed something to handle a "tarball". I've been instructed to just copy the activeX control and create our own installer th...
