Aqua-Soft ForumsI can't seem to make any skin i select for VLC "stick". In other words, after i select the skin, and then close out VLC, when i re-open it, it's back to the default skin. Does anyone know how to override this? Thanks.
[Help] Skinning VLC Media Player
go to your start menu, run the "vlc media player skins" shortcut instead of the regular one, and try assigning it again. IIRC that will do it...
Settings->preferences->inetrface->general Inerface module, choose skinable interface, Save
It's soo hard?
End
Got it! Thanks. Hey -- you know what? It wasn't so hard! Thanks to you, NiceSnake.
You can search the boards here for VLC skins, or find them from somewhere else on the web, then simply drop them in the VLC skins folder and select the skin by right-clicking on the title bar of VLC player. Play around with it. hope that helps.
I know where to get skins from 
what i wanted to know was how to make them 
it's pretty much like any other skins,
except that the *.vlt file is like a russian doll, it has another archive file inside with the extension *.tar
(sometimes they don't have the extension written, just add it and open it with WinRAR or similar app)
once your inside the *.tar there is an *.xml, the fonts and the images, older skins are simply in a folder.
here's a tutorial: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/skins2-create.html
merci pour l'info Mr Day 
:D
