Windows 10 shortcut
Posted: 15 Aug 2020 04:51
I am trying to create a desktop shortcut to IP webcam. The live stream opens fine when I use VLC's interface. I can't figure out how to do it with a windows shortcut. This is what my shortcut looks like:
Target %ProgramFiles%\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe "http://192.168.1.149:8080\video"
Start in %ProgramFiles%\VideoLAN\VLC
This is what VLC outputs when I use the shortcut: Your input can't be opened: VLC is unable to open the MRL 'http://192.168.1.149:8080\video'. Check the log for details
What is VLC looking for to open the MRL?
Target %ProgramFiles%\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe "http://192.168.1.149:8080\video"
Start in %ProgramFiles%\VideoLAN\VLC
