[Bug 333572] Re: multiple instances of VLC when "allow only one instance"
While "allow only one instance" could be a sane default value, the lack of it doesn't result in unusable system provided that the .desktop file is fixed (as it should be in karmic). In that case opening all files in a directory two times will just launch two instances having all the files in their playlists. -- multiple instances of VLC when "allow only one instance" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/333572 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 333572] Re: multiple instances of VLC when "allow only one instance"
The allow only one instance setting should also be set by default, otherwise any opening of a bunch of video/audio files with vlc from nautilus will result in an absolutely unusable system. And I did not find out about the existance of such a settings until reading this bug report. -- multiple instances of VLC when "allow only one instance" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/333572 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This bug should be fixed by vlc 1.0.0 in karmic. Can you try it and report if this bug is fixed?

[Bug 333572] Re: multiple instances of VLC when "allow only one instance"
This is caused by patch introduced in bug #275043. Vanilla VLC .desktop file has "Exec=vlc %U" which passes URLs as parameters, patched version "Exec=vlc %f" which passes only one file. The 'Allow only one instance' option doesn't help much because all of them are started at the same time. -- multiple instances of VLC when "allow only one instance" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/333572 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
