ThinApp'ed version of VLC

Hi,

 

I'm trying to virtualize Videolan Media Player 8.6i (latest) and I've found a weird behaviour:

I've set my Package.ini to build the following executables:

 

; container

http://VLC media player.bin

ReadOnlyData=bin\Package.ro.tvr

Source=%ProgramFilesDir%\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe

Icon=Null

Shortcuts=%Desktop%;%Programs%\VideoLAN

 

http://VLC media player.exe

Shortcut=VLC media player.bin

Source=%ProgramFilesDir%\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe

WorkingDirectory=%ProgramFilesDir%\VideoLAN\VLC

Shortcuts=%Desktop%;%Programs%\VideoLAN

 

...

 

http://cmd.exe

Shortcut=VLC media player.bin

Source=%SystemSystem%\cmd.exe

 

After I've built the package, if I launch "VLC media player.exe", VMWare banner shows (VLC starts to load ?) and then ... nothing ... no error message ... no crash ... no vlc.exe process in memory!

 

BUT,

if I launch cmd.exe (virtual one), and from there "VLC media player.exe", VLC starts and works fine!

 

any idea ?

 

Alban
