VLC Player config - rajivkanaujia/alphaworks GitHub Wiki

Background

In my clean Mac reinstall etc., I lose two key VLC preferences. I like Videos to be playing in separate window so that I can see my videos playlist. I also want the video windows not to resize automatically

Setting for Video Player

Disable Video Interface Resizing

Disable Embedded Video

Enable Audio Visualization

Show the right buttons

Adding TuneIn Radio

I need a radio player. This is TL/DR for Mac. The approach is documented in details at https://addons.videolan.org/p/1153982/ First, start a terminal window (or iTerm).

TLDR Commands

$ cd Downloads/
$ curl -L https://github.com/diegofn/TuneIn-Radio-VLC/archive/master.zip > TuneinRadioVLC.zip
$ unzip TuneinRadioVLC.zip
$ sudo cp TuneIn-Radio-VLC-master/tunein.lua /Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/share/lua/sd/
$ sudo cp -R TuneIn-Radio-VLC-master/playlist/* /Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/share/lua/playlist/
