VLC 1.1.4 cant save path in Source directory

Postby nmga » 05 Sep 2010 18:42

Hi Good Afternoon,

I have been using VLC 1.0.5 to stream films from my computer to my TV using a sattelite reciver called Dreambox.

Today a get a message saying that a new version (1.1.4) was avaliable ...

I download and install it without any problem .... and at the PC this version is working well ... test it with .mkv, .avi and .ts files.

The problem here is in order to stream the movies to my tv i have to go to: interface -> main interfaces -> HTTP

and fill:

Host address -> :8080
Source Directory -> E:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\http\

And when i save it only saves the host address port ( :8080), dont save what i put at source directory, in my case E:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\http\

Any help will be wellcome, Im using windows 7 ultimate.

thanks
Nuno

P.S.: to test i uninstall the 1.1.4 version and install the old 1.0.5 and all goes well again

I haven't had a chance to check if 1.1.5 fixes this bug.

It looks like it's fixed in 1.1.5, but now the Host address does not display!
