Different Tabs, no "file" tab

Postby spicoli15 » 13 Apr 2009 21:48

Hi,

I have VLC at school and it is very useful for changing my video extensions, but when I downloaded it at home it does not give me the same tabs at the top of the page... My tabs start with "Media" instead of "file" so I can't access the wizard to change my file extenions. Both my cpu at school and at home are windows version and that is the version I downloaded. Any ideas? Thank you very much...

Steve

File menu is in 0.8.6 and younger version. Media menu is in 0.9.x and later. So you have different versions in school and home.

VLC_help,

With all due respect you didn't answer his question. I have the same one. How do you get to the wizard in the current version of vlc? .9.x

There isn't any Wizard in 0.9.x, neither there is any File menu.

Instead of using the Wizard use the "Covert / Save..." or "Streaming..." options. Go to "Media >> Convert / Save..." for converting/saving files or for streaming go to "Media >> Streaming...".
