lol, I tried a number of different syntaxes, but nothing like that! So now I've got:
tag_name = "vlc" tag_program = """\"C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe\"""" Unfortunately though I still get the same problem. Command prompt pops up and vanishes and nothing happens... Can anyone else get it to work?
