  • associate your .mov, .avi, and other files directly with the VLC droplet/app, allowing you to simply click on the files to launch the files in a new standalone VLC session.

1. I am using windows 10 on my laptop with 64 bit obs studio and 64 bit vlc player. When i add a vlc player it shows up as black - no video. I tried adding different videos to the playlist but nothing. I have specified the bounds correctly. I have also made sure that obs uses graphics card in proper mode as suggested by someone online. This is frustrating.
2. I have heard that vlc has some neat features like doing a playlist and also it also has the facility to pause the video when not being used and resumes from that point when we switch back to it. These features are not available in normal media player in obs studio i think... Is that true? or can we still do playlists and pause when not in use in media sources other than vlc?
Can someone please guide on both above issues?
