Multiple vlc installation in a windows desktop

Postby balasubramanya » 06 Jun 2013 15:20

Hi,

I would like to run 2 different versions of vlc(version 1.1.11 and 2.0.2) in a windows desktop. What all changes are needs to be done for it to work on web browsers simultaneously. I am using self compiled version of vlc 1.1.11. I modified following code

1. changed CLSID_VLCPlugin{} in projects/activex/ axvlc_idl.c and axvlc_idl.h
2. changed CLSID_VLCPlugin2{} in projects/activex/ axvlc_idl.c and axvlc_idl.h
3. changed application/x-vlc-plugin in projects/mozilla/vlcplugin.h

I am able to play the videos in browser if I install the modified vlc 1.1.11. But if I install vlc 2.0.2 also the playback using vlc 1.1.11 doesn't happen.

Please suggest me the changes required make dual installation work on windows.

Regards,
Bala
