vlcrun

vlcrun is a very simple program that allows you to run a specific instance of vlc on your machine. It is especially useful when moving shortcuts created with VLC Shortcut Play Folder from a machine to another: as shortcuts always take an absolute path, just make them point to vlcrun (e.g. using LinkBatch to mass-edit them), then simply edit your vlcrun .ini file on the new machine to target a different VLC instance and voila!

vlcrun can run on Linux via Wine.

Coming Soon: a vlcrun installer for Ubuntu/Debian! stay tuned.
