Resolved Question

VLC Media Player problem

Dec 21, 2011 6:28AM PST

For some time now I haven't been able to view movies through VLC. Now when I "open file," I get http, locale, lua, osdmenu, plugins, sdk and skins but I don't know how to find the movie that I downloaded. Help appreciated.

Doesn't seem to be a VLC problem.

If I understand you properly, the problem is you can't find where you downloaded the files to.

If that's right, where does your browser default to as the Save As location?

Thanks, Mark. Problem solved. I always used to see Azureas downloads, but I don't see that anymore. I just now went to the actual file and discovered that I have to go to My Downloads. Sorry about the silly question.
