Error: spawn exec ENOENT #4

Closed grahamperrin closed 7 years ago

Found when, for example, trying to send the video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvuhlrKikOc

In preferences for the extension, I specify this command:

exec vlc

– which does execute VLC (launch its GUI etc.) when run from a terminal window. Do I need a variation on that command?

andy-portmen commented 7 years ago

I think you just need to have just vlc. There is no need for that exec command.

andy-portmen commented 7 years ago

The error message you get means that there is no file named exec.

grahamperrin commented 7 years ago

Thanks. That's enough to close this issue.

(The resulting /tmp/vlc-3363408419.m3u8 is zero bytes, I'll tackle that later.)

I have the same error, and my command is just vlc.exe (with the path)
