VLC- CONFIG FILES.

Postby millersnmeva » 18 Jan 2024 22:09

Ok so I tried i have a 3 monitor setup. I want to run vlc 3 instances to 3 different monitors. I setup my preference and copied the vlcrc and vlc-qt-interface.ini file to a folder say vlc2 and i tried running a bat file with the following vlc.exe --config c:\vlc2\vlcrc and even vlc.exe --config="c:\vlc2\vlcrc" but no matter what i do it seems to still be getting the settings from the origInal location %appdata%\vlc\ what am I doing wrong?

vlc.exe --config="c:\vlc2\vlcrc" should work, but make sure you are running the correct VLC.exe you want to use.

c:\vlc2\vlc.exe --config="c:\vlc2\vlcrc"
