I am searching for a "VLC"-wlx plugin

Post by *bremaya »

Does anyone here know a TC add-on that uses VLC instead of WMP to play media? I use this one, http://progman13.wincmd.ru/downloads/wlx_VLCPlayer.zip, but I don't know the author or official website to look for an update, it works fine but there are some limitations, so if does anyone know where i can get an update or the source code thanks, I'll be very thankful.
The mmedia add-onhttp://fg.tcplugins.free.fr/mmedia.htm works excellently on Windows, however, I am using Ubuntu 22.04 LTS with Wine 8.0 and would like to have an add-on of media that was up to par but using VLC as a substitute, as Wine 8.0 with PREFIX 64bit does not run Windows Media Player or its MCI interface, which are mandatory for the correct functioning of mmedia in Total Commander.
Thanks to everyone who help...

1st: thanks for the link to vlcplayer.wlx
Its far from good (ignoring settings, no support for env vars, 32bit tc can call 64bit vlc etc) but it works ok otherwise

2nd: concerning your question: I dont think sadly that such a think exists at all
(reading https://forum.wincmd.ru/viewtopic.php?p=127002 and http://forum.wincmd.ru/viewtopic.php?t=13880 most plugins are sadly build on mediaplayer)
Hoecker sie sind raus!

Since I have installed the K-Lite Standart Codec package with Media Player Classic HC
I have removed VLC and all other stuff including any plugins in TC.
TC config just refers to the installed System and plays anything.
Windows 11 Home x64 Version 23H2 (OS Build 22631.3374)
TC 11.03 x64 / x86
Everything 1.5.0.1371a (x64), Everything Toolbar 1.3.2, Listary Pro 6.3.0.69
QAP 11.6.3.2 x64
