Postby elfric » 02 Dec 2014 13:22

Hi, how can i input a path to a vlcrc when i don't know this path. i know the default path for windows which end with appdata\vlc\vlcrc but it doesn't answer my question how all this versions find their different config files without inputing a path.

I'll answer my own question: they all use the same vlcrc file. so if you change a parameter in one version it replicate in all the others. unless of course you input a path for vlcrc.
