Alumni
Hello,
My TC Version is: 12.50.4142.7 x86
My VLC Version is: 3.0.1.0
I have installed the extension and I have the Start/Stop Video Recording option available in my operations. VLC is installed and I was able to record my screen manually. (Starting it from VLC)
When I run the recording in a test I get a warning:
"Unable to start the recording. The VLC recorder is not installed. See Additional Info for details"
And in the Additional Info is:
"The video recorder uses the recording functionallity of the VLC framework.
Download the recorder from the following website and install it:
What did I do wrong? Is there any way to sepcify the path to the VLC.exe?
Thanks for your help in advance.

AlumniHi, Kjuetting
This is because you have TC x86 and VLC player x64 installed. x86 process cannot see values of x64 Windows Registry.
So, you can
* just use TestComplete x64,
* or install x86 version of VLC:
https://get.videolan.org/vlc/3.0.2/win32/vlc-3.0.2-win32.exe
* or modify extension (yes, it's just zip archive) in isInstalled and getPath methods of RecorderInfo object.
Also feel free to create an issue here:

Maybe somebody (or me) fix it in near future.
Champion Level 1Hi Kai,
> Is there any way to sepcify the path to the VLC.exe?
Yes it is. Unpack the VideoRecorder.tcx file (this is just a zip archive) and go through the code in the script.sj file.
