VLC - MP4 Default

Postby Klaatu » 28 Feb 2013 05:39

I'm using a new MAC mini, Mountain Lion --- I can view virtually all video formats except MP4 -- how do I set VLC to play MP4 videos as a default?

Much thanx.

Sounds like you want VLC to open MP4 files by default.

Get Info (Command-I) in the Finder on an MP4 file. Set "Open with" to VLC and click "Change All..."

Thank you very much...I'm new to MACs (after 32 years of using a PC), and I forgot about making that change. Thanx for helping me.
