Quelea does not recognise that I have VLC installed


Either you need to update your VLC that was already installed to the Latest VLC

OR you have the 64bit program version of VLC installed and Quelea only recognises the 32bit version
in which case you should just note when downloading and installing that you do use the 32bit
program.
