Update to pluging directory placement

Closed this issue · 3 comments

I recently installed VLC 64-bit on Windows 10. I place my dll file in C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC but could not get VLC to recognize the plugin. When I went to advanced preferences there weren't any options to on the settings for play/pause on click. I ended up having to put the plugin here: C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\plugins. After that, everything showed up as per the usage instruction pictures and the plugin worked.

There is nothing to update, README does say to install it into the plugins directory:

Extract the archive at {VLC}\plugins\video_filter\, where {VLC} is the directory the VLC was installed into.

By default, the 32-bit VLC installs into C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\ and the 64-bit one into C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\.

Perhaps it could be better worded? What wording would you suggest that would make the instructions clearer?

You are right! I misread the first section where it says, {VLC}\plugins\video\vide_filter\. My mistake!

No change needed.
