Start external program

[gerritk]

How can I start an external program like Vlc?

Cmd command is>
"C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" D:\Video\Artist - Title.mp4 --start-time=87

Exec Command
Exec Shell Command don't do the trick

Please post your exact command...
E.g. it might look like this (your quotes have just not been set accordingly):

Code: Select all

EXEC_SHELL_COMMAND C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe "D:\Video\Artist - Title.mp4" --start-time=13

Thx it works.

I will try to change it to

Code: Select all

EXEC_SHELL_COMMAND C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe "D:\{trackname} .mp4" --start-time={cueinms}

also I will try

The --start-time=$(($x-3)) to get it more in line (lip sync)

Note, that ProppFrexx macros must precede with a $ sign,
Eg. ${trackname}

And note, that not all macros are available with all events… see the user manual appendix for details.
