There is a trial of Win4K3Suite, you should give it a try. Then you have an integrated setup for your K3 and you won't need to use VLC. It's worth a try, maybe Tom the author of Win4K3Suite will chime in. Max NG7M > On Sun, Dec 24, 2017 at 6:52 PM, Jim Miller <j...@jtmiller.com> wrote: > A little victory here for me.
