[Suggestion] Locate VLC path #113

already have VLC portable on an external drive, so copying it to another 
location is just a waste of space (and VLC is actually not all that small...).

Thanks

Hi,

I am trying the same thing, but can not get it to work.

Entry in Settings.xml

 <VlcLocation>I:\PortableApps\VLCPortable</VlcLocation>

I also tried a relative path with ..\..\VLCPortable and high commas.

Can you please help?

Thank you!
