Multiple Instances no open when open files

Postby zzzk » 02 Jun 2011 20:49

Hello,

I have checked multiple instances in prefernces and it works, however, to get a 2nd instance, I have to open a new instance from the vlc icon. In other words, if I have a video open, if I double click on another video, it will replace the 1st video rather than opening a 2nd instance. I there any way to change this? Thank you.

Hi zzzk,
Here is a pic to show you what you should uncheck in Vlc preferences, so you'll get multiple instances :
