[QUOTE="fruttifrutti, post: 1190453, member: 145253"] Hello, What is the easiest way to have the ability to open a file, from within MP, using VLC? I use MP to playback TV recordings (UK Freeview) recorded in .TS format. HD recordings sometimes freeze during playback and too often freeze when skipping ahead or fast forwarding. It is particularly bad when my aerial signal isn't perfect e.g. during storms but this isn't the only time. Reading this forum I see many examples e.g. even on the front page active threads like the one on BBC 1 HD. VLC plays all these files just perfectly. No freezes, ever. Navigating to the correct file using Windows isn't very quick or easy so I was ideally hoping for a way to have MP use the VLC.exe as a backend player while within MP environment. Failing that, to have MP trigger opening the file externally with VLC application. Are either possible? [/QUOTE]
