How to change installation directory path with command line of NSIS installer of new VLC player?

Question

I want to silently install NSIS in D:\VLC. I can do that with old VLC version i.e. VLC 1.1.9. But I cannot do the same for VLC 2.0.5.

Here is the command line I am using

vlc-1.1.9-win32.exe /D=D:\vlc\

Result:

Command for 2.0.5

vlc-2.0.5-win32.exe /D=D:\vlc\

Result:

It don't want to download source and re-compile with NSIS. I just want to know is changing directory of installation possible in new VLC? And if yes How?

Answer 1

You can fix this, by registering the following registry key before launching the setup: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VideoLAN\VLC] "InstallDir"="D:\vlc"
