addressing multiple instances with applescript
Posted: 17 Aug 2020 12:19
By searching this forum I found Mr Kuehne's script for opening several instances of the VLC player...
...which works like a charm. But I couldn't find a way to address the different instances with applescript. I there a solution to this?
Sorry if this is maybe a basic question, but I'm new to VLC and scripting as well...
Thanks for all your help!

repeat with theFile in theFiles
do shell script "open -na /Applications/VLC.app " & quote & (POSIX path of theFile) & quote
end repeat
end openSorry if this is maybe a basic question, but I'm new to VLC and scripting as well...
