Problem previewing with VLC
« on: November 07, 2008, 10:30:07 PM »

Hi, I have just shifted all the content (downloaded,shared and currently downloading) from one hard drive to another. Amule has coped fine and has picked up where i left off after i changed the directories. However, VLC no won't preview files while they are downloading returning the following message.

failed to execute external media player! Command: '/applications/VLC.app'

VLC opens but won't ever play the file.

I have tried inserting the "open -a" phrase before VLC in the preview app location panel but it does no good.

Any ideas?

Maybe the problem is with VLC...

Is the command correct? this seeems to be Mac OS X you are running, which OS version? which aMule version? did you compile it yourself or used some package?

Regards.
