sry that i cannot contribute something but i found a small bug in nightly 1.2.0 windows version (install and non install)
using "open file" is not working
i am not sure since which version its broken
in vlc-1.2.0-git-20101101-0002 it was working

when i use "open file" i get this error messages :
File reading failed:
VLC could not open the file "(null)".

no matter which file i want to open
but open the file with
"advanced open file" works
with recent media and
double click on supported file it works too
just "open file" is broken
sry for posting this
but i normaly use double click and found this bug by accident
i think u know it already
