[wpkg-users] VLC 2.2.2 win32 on x64

[Jon Rhoades]

Hey,

The VLC installer is pretty terrible and as you can see from the wiki there are many different approaches to getting it working.

Personally, I just gave up and downloaded the VLC zip file, which I then package myself in Inno Setup - so I know that the install and uninstaller will work reliably every time.

Cheers Jon

Hi fellow wpkg'ers,

The update for VLC 2.2.2 (haven't tried earlier versions with wpkg, 
though) failed on my Windows 7 test machines. And it seems that 
vlc-2.2.2-win32.exe does not or not always install on x64 Windows 7. 
Once I changed the .xml to install the x64 it worked.

Symptoms I saw: Installer always returned 0, but VLC was not 
installed. On one machine I tried to run it manually and 
interactively. Then it bailed out telling me an instance of VLC was 
running and had to be quit.
