Thanks for the suggestion - this was new to me.

Unfortunately it doesn't quite work as I had hoped.  Got everything configured - tight up to the point of specifying the target file to be executed.  It seems this has to be a .exe whereas I really need to use a .bat file to start VLC with a parameter to select the required input source (i.e. the USB Video device provided by the capture card).  Specifying the .bat file just doesn't work.

The Launcher function in MP2 doesn't have  this limitation as it is happy to execute as .bat file.

I will need to explore VLC  in more depth to see if the required parameters can be supplied as arguments which it looks as though MultiShortcut can support.

If anyone can offer ideas.........
