How to change default webinterface port

[blader]

I installed VLC and trying to get the default port changed to for example 9090

For now I'm only be able to open web interface on localhost:8080 nothing else.

I looked in config but only found an option to make http default which is not an option.

Using ntservice with extra interface http added and extra parameter http-port= but that didn't worked as well.

Isn't there a simpler way to get this port changed ?

[VLC_help]

Tools -> Preferences... (Show settings: All) Interface -> Main interface -> HTTP and put the port to Host address field (so :9090). Save and restart.

But when i do that i'll lose the default interface. I would like to use both of them. Going to try it again .

-update
After trying it over and over again, flushing settings to default it suddenly works. Thanks for helping.

That option doesn't seem to be available in the latest versions.
So you need to change the vlcrc file %APPDATA%\vlc\vlcrc Search for the setting http-port=

There are three settings that contain http-port but only the one which is only http-port is the correct one to modify.
If the line starts with # you will need to remove the # from the beginning of the line

So to set the port to 9090 then you would have the line as
http-port=9090
