Is there a portable app that I can convert MKV to AVI files?

Hello everyone.
I configured the FluidSynth plugin for VLC, but I had to type the full path to the .sf2 file.
Is it there any way to make the path generic or relative?
E.g.: Maybe something like %VLCINSTALLATIONPATH%\path\to\the\file?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi!
I just upgraded the OpenShot software, but it doesn't open.
The splash screen appears, but nothing happens.
Just letting you know...
Thanks!

How can it be that there's a version 3.0.14 Rev 2, when the last version was 3.0.15?

I'm a regular user of Musescore and currently run version 3.5.2 via the PortableApps platform. I know though that version 3.6.x has been released and is apparently a significant upgrade in terms of appearance. I know also that the good folk at PortableApps will provide an updated version via the platform in the fullness of time, assuming this is still technically possible.

WaveShop immediately tries to connect to the internet without warning when it is launched.

I'm guessing it's trying to check for updates. I noticed the "Check for updates" option is enabled by default in the settings.

May I recommend disabling that setting by default, and then verifying that it no longer tries to connect to the internet when launched?

I can pin Firefox Portable to the taskbar, no problem. If I click on it from the taskbar to open it, it opens up exactly where it is pinned at.

But when I pin OBS Portable to the taskbar, it won't open up where it is pinned. It will open up and appear after every other program that is pinned to the taskbar.

Just to be sure, I unpinned both Firefox Portable and OBS Portable. And then I used PortableApps.com Platform to pin both programs. Firefox Portable worked. OBS Portable did not.

This issue has been discussed on this forum in the past. The reasoning given was that there's no real benefit of the 64-bit over the 32-bit, so only the 32-bit is available on PortableApps.

Well, now there is a real benefit. OBS can use VLC directly as a source (useful for streaming). But only 64-bit VLC.
