Hello everybody,

I am trying to change vlc's color scheme to a dark one. Just vlc's ... not the system wide one.

What am I missing here? Can you help me?

Best regards,
Thomas

how do i do that? (See my user name...) I screwed up my color scheme so it is unwatchable, and cant figure out how to fix it

Do you run Linux?
