[QUOTE="relapse, post: 276532, member: 22252"] That thread gives instructions which lead to the following: I set that particular file to open with VLC. But only THAT particular file opens with VLC. All of the other files are still quicktime files. I just want to download a video clip every single day, and every single day, I want to double click on the video and it should open up with VLC. I'm trying to avoid having to set each and everything single file to always open with VLC (since I have thousands of files on my computer). And even though the icon changes from a Quicktime icon to a VLC icon, when I right click, it still lists Quicktime as being "default" Is there any way to do this? I'm starting to think that my only solution is to delete QuickTime completely from my HD. I mean, VLC plays all the avi files that Quicktime does, so why would anyone use QuickTime? VLC does more than QuickTime does as well. Some say the quality on VLC isn't that great, but I don't have any problems with it at all. Any suggestions? [/QUOTE]
