Hi Sigma

I`m not shure then if I have get your point.

You are using windows and have installed VLC, right?
-If you click on the VLC icon, right mouse button, on options there will appear a task.
-By clicking in the field target which should be allready marked you see an adress. click on the adress (it`s like a path adress from vlc)
- behind the last letter place your cursor an press space and enter the required adress you want, like you would type it manually. then click ok on the task, and your adress is saved and opening by double clicking the vlc icon.
- you can repeat this as often you like by copy and pasting the icon and doing the same steps like told.

I hope it`s that what you need.
